elasticsearch is running on docker 17.04 (latest version) with overlay2 storage driver.  
when ever user is added using useradd command in shield, it is creating temporary files for each user and roles added. PFA the image.

Note: but with docker device mapper storage driver, this was not observed.  
Has anyone tried shield with docker overlay2 storage driver.
