Karthik Kambatla commented on HADOOP-8552: ------------------------------------------ Devaraj, thanks for the feedback. It is both on the client/server side. By server side, I mean for the jobtracker/namenode. Thanks for pointing the potential compatibility issue, I agree we need to note the incompatibility in log file change. > Conflict: Same security.log.file for multiple users. > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8552 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8552 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: conf, security > Affects Versions: 1.0.3, 2.0.0-alpha > Reporter: Karthik Kambatla > Assignee: Karthik Kambatla > Attachments: HADOOP-8552_branch1.patch, HADOOP-8552_branch2.patch > > > In log4j.properties, hadoop.security.log.file is set to SecurityAuth.audit. > In the presence of multiple users, this can lead to a potential conflict. > Adding username to the log file would avoid this scenario. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
