Xiaoyu Yao commented on HADOOP-13771:
-------------------------------------
Also propose to migrate existing {{hdfs groups}} command to {{hadoop groups}}
without HDFS dependency.
> Adding group mapping lookup utility without dependency on HDFS namenode

> We have {{hdfs groups}} command to troubleshoot issues related to users'
> group member look up with Unix/LDAP. However, there are some limitation of
> this command: 1) it can only be executed when namenode is running. 2) any
> change in the group mapping lookup configuration needs a hdfs namenode
> restart, which is expensive.
> This ticket is proposed to have a simple CLI utility like HadoopKerberosName
> {code}
> hadoop org.apache.hadoop.security.HadoopKerberosName
> nn/localh...@hdpdev.dev.com
> {code}
> The CLI utility for group member lookup will have a usage like below without
> namenode running or restart for configuration change.
> {code}
> hadoop org.apache.hadoop.security.Groups hdfs
> hdfs : [hadoop, hdfs]
> {code}
