Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1034:
--------------------------------------------
I we'd better off by moving forward with the way of shaping up the HDFS with
the groovy + tarball approach, that is faster and - more importantly -
idempotent.
The current script is a dead end - it is too slow and a way overcomplicated.
> Custom user's home directory's creation fails in init-hdfs.sh

> Key: BIGTOP-1034
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1034
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Debian, RPM
> Affects Versions: 0.6.0
> Reporter: Mark Grover
> Fix For: 0.7.0
>
>
> The init-hdfs.sh script has {{set -ex}} at the top for a good reason.
> However, the script itself when creating a custom user's home directory on
> HDFS, does a {{ls}} to see if the directory already exists:
> https://github.com/apache/bigtop/blob/master/bigtop-packages/src/common/hadoop/init-hdfs.sh#L91
> This fails if the directory doesn't exist which makes the entire script fail.
> This check could be enclosed so it doesn't make the script fail.
