   Thanks @akatona84 initially I had the same question as @divijvaidya but your explanation cleared up that doubt to some extent. If I understood the problem correctly that you described, the MM2 user failed because of the presence of a directory(.pki) which only a kafka user has access to. With this PR, MM2 user should be able to start MM2 cluster even though there's a directory to which it doesn't have access to.
   If that is the case, IMO the current behaviour is better that is we let things fail upfront and let the admins figure out what user groups should have access to which directories etc. Atleast with this, we won't have a case where the cluster can be brought in in an unexpected way. This is based on my understanding your explanation and there's a chance I might have missed something. Let me know what you think.
