[jira] [Created] (HBASE-10326) Super user should be able scan all the cells irrespective of the visibility labels

ramkrishna.s.vasudevan created HBASE-10326:
----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Super user should be able scan all the cells irrespective of the visibility labels
                 Key: HBASE-10326
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10326
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.98.0
            Reporter: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
            Assignee: ramkrishna.s.vasudevan
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 0.98.0, 0.99.0


This issue is in lieu with HBASE-10322.  In case of export tool, when the cells with visibility labels are exported using a super user we should be able to export the data.  But with the current implementation, the super user would also be able to view cells that has visibility labels associated with the superuser.  The idea of HBASE-10322 is to strip out tags based on user and if so this change is necessary for export tool to work with Visibility.  ACL already has a concept of global admins.
