> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-2972
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2972
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: docs
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.5.1, 1.6.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: newbie
> Fix For: 1.5.3, 1.6.3, 1.8.0, 1.7.1
>
>
> Right now, the only mention of how to change an instance secret [is a note on
> the instance.secret
> property|http://accumulo.apache.org/1.6/accumulo_user_manual.html#_instance_secret]
> and the example invocation is wrong.
> The correct invocation:
> {code}
> accumulo org.apache.accumulo.server.util.ChangeSecret
> {code}
> The instructions should specify the following caveats
> # The cluster must be down before running (verified by the tool)
> # The command should be run as the user that controls the existing Accumlo
> files in HDFS (ref ACCUMULO-2971)
> The instructions for use should probably go in the troubleshooting section of
> the manual, and then get a link from the instance.secret property as well as
> [the accumulo settings section that talks about the instance
> secret|http://accumulo.apache.org/1.6/accumulo_user_manual.html#_accumulo_settings].
