Summary: [Shell] Recreate table grants after truncate
Key: HBASE-11596
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11596
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Andrew Purtell
Priority: Minor
The shell's truncate command disables, drops, and creates a replacement table.
When the AccessController is active it observes the drop and cleans up any
grants made on the table. The shell does not take any action to preserve the
grants but could. Would make a nice improvement. If security is active and
running with administrative privilege, the shell could retrieve the table- and
CF-level grants before dropping the table and replay them on the new table
after creating it.
