> Key: DRILL-3984
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3984
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Environment: N/a
> Reporter: Andy Pernsteiner
> Assignee: Bridget Bevens
> Priority: Trivial
>
> 1.2 seems to have some new capabilities, namely the ability to restrict
> administrative (alter system, etc) functions to specific users/groups, as
> well as to restrict the UI/REST interface .
> In the page http://drill.apache.org/docs/configuring-user-authentication/ ,
> there is the following section:
> <snip>
> Administrator Privileges
> When authentication is enabled, only Drill users who are assigned Drill
> cluster administrator privileges can perform the following tasks:
> Change a system-level option by issuing an ALTER SYSTEM command
> Update a storage plugin configuration through the REST API or Web Console
> View profiles of all queries that all users have run or are currently running
> in a cluster
> Cancel running queries that were launched by any user in the cluster
> </snip>
> The issue is that there is no further explanation on how to:
> 1) set the appropriate system variables to assign users/groups to have admin
> privileges
> 2) secure the UI (along w/ pre-req's/etc)
> Simple fix is to refer people to the appropriate page within the
> 'administrator privileges' section
