Description

For BIGTOP-547, I had done my testing where I running the MR job as root.

However, the helper script creates home directory for hard-coded set of users (root, jenkins, etc.) but not for other users. In particular, it doesn't create a directory for the user who is running the command.

It should do that too (safely, in case the user is root).
