Suraj Acharya commented on HDFS-10899:
--------------------------------------

{quote}I have a mixed feeling of this. As listed in the Alternatives of 'HDFS 
client-side', it is more admin-friendly. But it will also make the already 
not-so-friendly ACLs more complex.{quote}
Doesn't Roll key already have an underlying generate EEK as warming of edeks? 
Since you mentioned re-encrypt will have the same ACLs as generate EEK I think 
we should be okay. That was my thinking.
{quote}Also, in this example, to support the scenario where admin accidentally 
missed a zone 'd', we still need the reencrypt command to re-encrypt it. {quote}
Regarding this my thought was that they can use the rencrypt zone command/ 
endpoint to re-encrypt zone 'd' (point1)



> Add functionality to re-encrypt EDEKs.

> Currently when an encryption zone (EZ) key is rotated, it only takes effect 
> on new EDEKs. We should provide a way to re-encrypt EDEKs after the EZ key 
> rotation, for improved security.
