--------------------------------------
Summary: User impersonation does not work in 'simple' mode.
Key: HBASE-12230
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12230
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: REST, security
Affects Versions: 0.98.6.1
Reporter: Aditya Kishore
Assignee: Aditya Kishore
The [code responsible for initializing proxy
configuration|https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/7cfdb38c9274e306ac37374c147a978c2cef31d6/hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/security/HBasePolicyProvider.java#L54]
does not execute unless {{"hadoop.security.authorization"}} is set to true.
This is departure from other Hadoop components. Impersonation should not be
tied to authorization.
