> Key: ACCUMULO-4491
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4491
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.7.1, 1.7.2, 1.8.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Priority: Critical
>
> Right now converting an existing cluster to use Kerberos requires using the
> {{accumulo init --reset-security}} tool in order to replace the "root" user
> with an appropriate administrative user principal. This has the side effect
> of dumping existing user permission information.
> That means downstream folks have to use the config dumping tools or the like
> in order to save existing permissions if they want to refer to them later
> while setting up kerberos users.
> It'd be preferable for us to have a cli tool to set the administrative user.
