[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-5714) Add write permissions check before any hbck run that modifies hdfs.

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5714?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jonathan Hsieh updated HBASE-5714:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
We encoutered a situation where hbck was run by an under-privileged user that was unable to write/modify/merge regions due to hdfs perms.  Unfortunately, this user was alerted of this  after several minutes of read-only operations.  hbck should fail early by having a write perm check and providing actionable advice to the hbase admin.

Maybe something like: "Current user yy does not have write perms to <hbase home>. Please run hbck as hdfs user xxx"

  was:
We encoutered a situation where hbase was run by a different user and was unable to write/modify/merge regions due to hdfs perms.  Unfortunately, this happened after several minutes of read-only operations.  hbck should fail early by having a write perm check and providing actionable advice to the hbase admin.

Maybe something like: "Current user yy does not have write perms to <hbase home>. Please run hbck as hdfs user xxx"
