Deprecate dfs.permissions.superusergroup in favor of hadoop.cluster.administrators ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-1008 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1008 Project: Hadoop HDFS 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. HDFS itself already has {{dfs.permissions.superusergroup}} (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.
