             Summary: Address file ownership issue for users in Administrators 
group on Windows.
                 Key: HADOOP-8457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8457
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0, 0.24.0
            Reporter: Chuan Liu
            Priority: Minor


On Linux, the initial file owners are the creators. (I think this is true in 
general. If there are exceptions, please let me know.) On Windows, the file 
created by a user in the Administrators group has the initial owner 
‘Administrators’, i.e. the the Administrators group is the initial owner of the 
file. As a result, this leads to an exception when we check file ownership in 
SecureIOUtils .checkStat() method. As a result, this method is disabled right 
now. We need to address this problem and enable the method on Windows.
