Ahmed Radwan commented on MAPREDUCE-4306: ----------------------------------------- Thanks Siddharth for the review! I agree, I think it is better to completely remove the "-user" option. I originally thought of just keeping it in case it can be used for testing or other purposes. But leaving it now may lead to confusion, and also setting it to something other than the original user will lead to failure as described above. Also reading ApplicationConstants.Environment.USER is simpler than reevaluating the username from ugi (which will give the same result after all). I have updated the patch accordingly.
