----------------------------------------
Arun: The HighTide node is running with the same priviledges as the two
NameNode(s). The NameNode can copy data from one datanode to another within the
same cluster. The HighTide node can copy data from one datanode in one cluster
to another datanode in another cluster. Can you pl explain if you see a
security issue in here?
