Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-6988: ------------------------------------------ I'm sorry, but it is completely short sighted to have a single use env var like this. If we need to modify the tasks environment for something else, are we going to introduce another environment variable? How many are too many? > Add support for reading multiple hadoop delegation token files > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-6988 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6988 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: security > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Aaron T.

I suggest a > colon-separated list of paths, each of which is read as a separate delegation > token file. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
