Marcelo Vanzin commented on HBASE-6585:
---------------------------------------

The "delete" case was just one example. If you need others:
. I can't differentiate add / modify / delete column, since all are "CREATE | 
ADMIN"
. I can't differentiate create / enable / disable / delete table, since all are 
"CREATE | ADMIN"
. Similar conflicts for move / assign / unassign.
. Maybe others I missed.

I understand that the issue you mention (whether "delete" should be its own 
action) might be something that makes sense in HBase, but there's more here 
than just delete.

> Currently, audit log messages contains the "action" for which access was 
> checked; this is one of READ, WRITE, CREATE or ADMIN.
> These give very little information to the person digging into the logs about 
> what was done, though. You can't ask "who deleted rows from table x?", 
> because "delete" is translated to a "WRITE" action.
> It would be nice if the audit logs contained the higher-level operation, 
> either replacing or in addition to the RWCA information.
