Configuring User Impersonation for Access to Phoenix
User impersonation runs Phoenix queries under the user ID associated with the Zeppelin session.
To enable user impersonation for Phoenix, complete the following steps in the Ambari dashboard:
In HBase configuration settings, enable phoenix sql.
In Advanced HBase settings, set the following properties:
hbase.thrift.support.proxyuser=true hbase.regionserver.thrift.http=true
In HDFS configuration settings, set the following properties:
hadoop.proxyuser.hbase.groups=* hadoop.proxyuser.hbase.hosts=* hadoop.proxyuser.zeppelin.groups=* hadoop.proxyuser.zeppelin.hosts=*
Make sure that the user has access to HBase. You can verify this from the HBase shell with the
user_permissionscommand.
