Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-1542: --------------------------------------------- Every time someone says "oh you can use a separate config file" I need to start thanking them. It just means that Hadoop is that much more operationally complex and helps to make sure that I'll have future employment. :) > Deprecate mapred.permissions.supergroup in favor of > hadoop.cluster.administrators > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1542 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1542 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: security > Reporter: Vinod K V > Fix For: 0.22.0 > > > HADOOP-6568 added the configuration {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}} through > which admins can configure who the superusers/supergroups for the cluster > are. MAPREDUCE itself already has {{mapred.permissions.supergroup}} (which is > just a single group). As agreed upon at HADOOP-6568, this should be > deprecated in favor of {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}}. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
