After the user account has been created on all nodes, also create the home directory (${pdfs.fs.local.homedir}/userName) for the newly created user in the FileSystem class for the DFS.
Refer to "C.4 pdfs-site.xml" for information on the pdfs.fs.local.homedir property.
Example
Create a home directory for the user named bdppuser1 on the DFS.
As the settings are shared at all nodes, execute as shown below at any of the nodes where the DFS is mounted.
# hadoop fs -mkdir /user/bdppuser1 <Enter> # hadoop fs -chown bdppuser1:bdppgroup /user/bdppuser1 <Enter> # hadoop fs -chmod 700 /user/bdppuser1 <Enter>
Set the group and permissions to suit the environment being used.
