Preserving Tags During Replication
By default, the codec used for replication between clusters strips
tags, such as cell-level ACLs, from cells. To prevent the tags from being stripped, you
can use a different codec which does not strip them. Configure
hbase.replication.rpc.codec
to use
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.codec.KeyValueCodecWithTags
, on both the
source and the sink RegionServers which are involved in the replication. This option was
introduced in HBASE-10322.
