Mark Owens commented on ACCUMULO-2907:
--------------------------------------

Is inspecting the value of the *Property.INSTANCE_SECURITY_AUTHENTICATOR* value 
a sufficient condition for determining the type of authentication used? If it 
uses the ZKAuthenticator should we suppress the message assuming a root 
password is needed and for all other authenticators leave the message in place?

> The warning that is printed about setting a root password may not be 
> applicable for your security setup is invalid because the plugable 
> authentication modules do not manage the root user and it is expected that 
> there will always be a local root user with a password.
> Remove the warning.
