> Bulk loading should not require client to be same as hbase user

> Key: HBASE-9417
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9417
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: regionserver, security
> Reporter: Enis Soztutar
>
> In unsecure bulk loading, the client creates the files to be bulk loaded, and
> asks the regionservers to do the operation. Bulk loading is performed by a
> move, which would mean that the hbase user has to have WRITE permissions for
> the bulk loaded files. If the client who has generated the files is different
> than the hbase user, this creates an access denied exception if complete bulk
> load is not run as the hbase user.
> I think even for unsecure mode, we should mimic what SecureBulkLoadEndpoint
> does, where hbase creates a staging directory and the client hands off the
> files to that directory with global perms.
