Create a proxy user (CLI)

Create a proxy user using the command-line interface.

Add the users that you want to designate as proxy users or members to the PowerScale cluster. The proxy user and its members must belong to the same access zone.
Run the isi hdfs proxyusers create command.
The following command designates hadoop-user23 in zone1 as a new proxy user:
isi hdfs proxyusers create hadoop-user23 --zone=zone1
The following command designates hadoop-user23 in zone1 as a new proxy user and adds the group hadoop-users to the list of members that the proxy user can impersonate:
isi hdfs proxyusers create hadoop-user23 --zone=zone1 --add-group=hadoop-users
The following command designates hadoop-user23 in zone1 as a new proxy user and adds UID 2155 to the list of members that the proxy user can impersonate:
