Chapter 3. Running Workers as Users
In Storm secure mode, workers can run as the user (owner of the topology) who deployed the topology. To enable, complete the following steps:
Make sure all users who are going to deploy topologies have a UNIX account on all of the Storm nodes. Workers will run under the UNIX account for topologies deployed by the user.
Example: For user

supervisor.run.worker.as.user : trueRestart Storm components.
