Ashish Singhi commented on HBASE-8572:
--------------------------------------
Thanks Matteo for more reviews.
bq. I tried with acl, and there the behaviour is a bit strange in my opinion,
but is the same on drop_all.
Yes, I checked this after your comment. Even disable_all and enable_all has the
same behaviour
I digged into this to find out the cause. I think the problem comes with
{{HBaseAdmin#listTables(String regex)}} as to execute this api one needs global
permission and this api is been called first when we execute disable_all,
enable_all and drop_all and hence it gets failed.
I then checked from shell {{list 't.*'}} it works without any exception when
checked the script it calls the deprecated method
{{HBaseAdmin#getTableNames(String regex)}}.
Can we raise a new Jira to handle this ?
And coming to snapshot, all the snapshot operations except list_snapshot
requires global permission as discussed here HBASE-7367.

for snapshots there is also another extra case, where you may be able to remove
just a subset of the list (see HBASE-11869 Support snapshot owner) which means
that you say Y and at the first deleteSnapshot failure the operation is aborted.

If I am understanding correctly this means we should not abort immediately
seeing a failure, rather try the operation on all the requested snapshot and
then log it to the client. Can we raise another jira to handle this, as it wil
require some testing after HBASE-11869 gets merged in the code ?

also I think that will be useful to print the snapshot information instead of
just the name, at list you can spot if there is something named wrongly.

This I will address in the next patch. Thanks for this.
