--------------------------------------

             Summary: hdfs launcher script will be better off not special casing namenode command with regards to hadoop.security.logger
                 Key: HDFS-3336
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3336
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: scripts
    Affects Versions: 0.23.1
            Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik
            Assignee: Roman Shaposhnik
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.0


All of the launcher scripts (except hdfs when called with a namenode argument) are defaulting to INFO,NullAppender setting for hadoop.security.logger. The only codepath where the default is INFO,RFAS is via hadoop-daemon.sh. This is exactly the right thing to do since only daemons are guaranteed to be executed under the proper user account (the one that has write/create access to the locations specified in ${hadoop.log.dir}/*).

It would be nice for 'hdfs namenode' to follow the suit and not produce spurious warnings about not being able to write to log locations when executed from under regular accounts.
