Problem Note 64155: The sasep-admin script fails with an error on Amazon EMR clusters

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The Hadoop Embedded Process installer script file, sasep-admin.sh, fails on Amazon Web Services (AWS) EMR clusters because of a permission issue. The script might fail with one of the following errors:  

Error: ssh commands fail to connect  

Error: Script assumes you are connecting as root.  This is not the case on AWS
EMR so commands passed to SSH must use sudo if trying to execute with root level
permissions.

Error: In checkRSyncInstalled()
./sasep-admin.sh: line 1622: [: -ne: unary operator expected
