[jira] [Created] (DRILL-7579) Specifying initial admin user with authentication enabled is impossible / undocumented

Dobes Vandermeer created DRILL-7579:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Specifying initial admin user with authentication enabled is impossible / undocumented
                 Key: DRILL-7579
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7579
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 1.17.0
            Reporter: Dobes Vandermeer


The documentation doesn't really give a clear path forward if you have enabled authentication but don't have any admin users already set up.  You cannot use ALTER SYSTEM to add an admin user if you are not already an admin user.

It would be good if there was a way to specify admin users in drill-override.conf.  If this is already possible, it would be good to update the docs to clarify that.
