[jira] [Commented] (HBASE-11972) The "doAs user" used in the update to hbase:acl table RPC is incorrect

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11972?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14133002#comment-14133002 ]

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

What the patch does is that the RPC to the regionserver hosting the hbase:acl region is performed as the "loginUser", which in this case, is the master, as opposed to the end-user. Without the doAs as the master, the remote regionserver would not allow the RPC to go through since the end-user doesn't have write access to the hbase:acl table...
