[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-19691) Do not require ADMIN permission for obtaining ClusterStatus

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19691?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16308898#comment-16308898 ] 

Chia-Ping Tsai commented on HBASE-19691:
----------------------------------------

Seems it is over-the-top. +1 to revert it. However, the ClusterStatus is the only way to get the cluster information so it will be more complicated I believe. It may be a leak of security in the future.

Thanks for this nice catch. [~elserj] [~romil.choksi]

> Appears to be a regression introduced by HBASE-19131. Operations that attempt to obtain the `status` from the HMaster now fail if the requesting user doesn't have global ADMIN permission.
