Best way is to join your nodes using SSSD service it will solve users directory creation problem + group mapping.

@kiranpune Which users are you talking about. CM users or some other user?

Hi @kiranpune ,

 

Based on step 7 below, the answer is yes that you need to add the user in OS level.

https://docs.cloudera.com/cloudera-manager/7.0.3/security-kerberos-authentication/topics/cm-security-kerberos-enabling-step7-prepare-cluster.html

 

Here:

Make sure all hosts in the cluster have a Linux user account with the same name as the first component of that user's principal name. For example, the Linux account joe should exist on every box if the user's principal name is joe@YOUR-REALM.COM. You can use LDAP for this step if it is available in your organization.

 

Thanks,

Li
