------------------------------------------

             Summary: In secure hbase, we should have a fail fast behavoir for 
unauthenticated user
                 Key: HBASE-6314
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-6314
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 0.94.0, 0.92.0
            Reporter: Himanshu Vashishtha
            Priority: Minor


In case of unauthenticated users in secure hbase, hbase shell does a connection 
retry at two levels:
a) HConnection: It retries hbase.client.retries.number times
b) HTableAdmin: it again retries hbase.client.retries.number times

So, hbase shell retries square number of times of the configured setting. We 
can make it failfast (no retries) in case the user is not authenticated (no 
valid kerberos credentials).
