Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5526:
--------------------------------------
Since the background for this is to be able to browse the directories through
the HDFS overview JSPs but to disallow downloading of the actual files, maybe
we can just use the FS' default umask for HBase created directories and only
override for HBase created files...?

> Currently many all the files created by the HBase user are just written using
> the default file permissions granted by hdfs. However, it is often times
> adventageous to only allow a subset of the world to view the actual data
> written by hbase when scanning the raw hdfs files.
> This ticket covers setting permissions for files written to hdfs that are
> storing actual user data, as opposed to _all_ files written to hdfs as many
> of them contain non-identifiable metadata.
