Hey folks,
Our Romil has been doing some testing with the tip of branch-2 and
noticed this little wrinkle with authn/authz enabled.
In <branch-1.4, any user could invoke `status` in the shell. After
HBASE-19131, the user needs ADMIN to be able to do this. It's not 100%
clear to me from the release notes whether or not this was an expected
change. I'm unsure if it's the right thing to do or not.
For `status 'detailed'`, I could see this extra information telling a
little "too much" for a normal user. But, for a plain-jane `status`,
number of HBase Master instances, regionservers (dead and alive), and
the average load seems fine for normal users.
Thanks in advance!
