---------------------------------------
Summary: Allow namespace admins to clone snapshots created by them
Key: HBASE-27493
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-27493
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: snapshots
Affects Versions: 2.5.1, 3.0.0-alpha-3
Reporter: Szabolcs Bukros
Assignee: Szabolcs Bukros
Creating a snapshot requires table admin permissions. But cloning it requires
global admin permissions unless the user owns the snapshot and wants to
recreate the original table the snapshot was based on using the same table
name. This puts unnecessary load on the few people having global admin
permissions. I would like to relax this rule a bit and allow the owner of the
snapshot to clone it into any namespace where they have admin permissions
regardless of the table name used.
