Jesse Yates commented on HBASE-5526: ------------------------------------ bq. take the default from the FS (which is the current behavior, right?) yup bq. Would be nice if we could put entries there just for documentation purposes, but not actually providing a default. Exactly what I was thinking, especially as the doc page in the ref guide is generated from hbase-default.xml > Optional file permission settings > --------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-5526 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5526 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: regionserver > Reporter: Jesse Yates > Assignee: Jesse Yates > Fix For: 0.94.0 > > Attachments: java_HBASE-5526.patch > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
