-----------------------------------

             Summary: shell "list" includes "hbase:namespace"
                 Key: HBASE-9275
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9275
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: shell
    Affects Versions: 0.95.2
            Reporter: Nick Dimiduk
            Priority: Minor


>From the shell "list" operation, we see the "user:namespace" table included in results. This is different from retrieving a tabling listing from the REST service, which omits that table.

The reason appears to be that hbase shell "list" command calls the deprecated {{HBaseAdmin#getTableNames(String)}}, which invokes {{HMaster#getTableNames}}. This implementation has different system table filtering logic from {{HMaster#getTableDescriptors}}. The latter is the call underlying the REST implementation.
