Lars Hofhansl commented on HBASE-5526: -------------------------------------- +1 on simplified version of first patch. > Configurable file and directory based umask > ------------------------------------------- > > 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-v2.patch, 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, to ensure only the > correct user/group views the files and directories, we need to be able to > apply a configurable umask to either directories or files. > This ticket covers setting permissions for files written to dfs, as opposed > to things like pid and log files. > The impetus for this was to allow the web-user to view the directory > structure of hbase, but not to actually see any of the actual data hbase is > storing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
