> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HADOOP-8611
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8611
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security
> Affects Versions: 1.0.3, 0.23.0, 2.0.0-alpha
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee
> Assignee: Robert Parker
> Fix For: 1.1.1, 0.23.3, 3.0.0, 2.2.0-alpha
>
>
> When the JNI-based users-group mapping is enabled, the process/command will
> fail if the native library, libhadoop.so, cannot be found. This mostly
> happens at client-side where users may use hadoop programatically. Instead of
> failing, falling back to the shell-based implementation will be desirable.
> Depending on how cluster is configured, use of the native netgroup mapping
> cannot be subsituted by the shell-based default. For this reason, this
> behavior must be configurable with the default being "disabled".
