Description

Aerospike Database versions before 5.1.0.3 permitted
user-defined functions (UDF) to call the `os.execute`
Lua function.

This module creates a UDF utilising this function to
execute arbitrary operating system commands with the
privileges of the user running the Aerospike service.

This module does not support authentication; however
Aerospike Database Community Edition does not enable
authentication by default.

This module has been tested successfully on Ubuntu
with Aerospike Database Community Edition versions
4.9.0.5, 4.9.0.11 and 5.0.0.10.
