Verify your Operational Database powered by Apache Accumulo installation

You can verify your Operational Database powered by Apache Accumulo installation using the Accumulo shell.

Install the Operational Database CSD file.
Install Cloudera and add the HDFS and ZooKeeper services to your deployment.
Install the Operational Database parcel.
Add the Accumulo on Cloudera service to your deployment.

Launch the Accumulo shell for the admin user.

Unsecure Operational Database

$ accumulo shell -u root

accumulo/hostname@REALM.COM@accumulo>

Run the following commands to verify your installation:
1. Create a table: createtable test
  The test table is created and becomes the current table.
2. List the admin user's permission and ensure it has admin and system level privileges: userpermission
3. On a secure cluster, the user who creates the table does not get access to the new table by default. These permissions have to be set manually:
```
'grant Table.READ -t test -u accumulo/hostname@REALM.COM'
'grant Table.WRITE -t test -u accumulo/hostname@REALM.COM'
'grant Table.ALTER_TABLE -t test -u accumulo/hostname@REALM.COM'
'grant Table.DROP_TABLE -t test -u accumulo/hostname@REALM.COM'
```
4. Insert some rows to the test table:
```
insert row f1 q1 v1
insert row f2 q2 v2
insert row f3 q3 v3
```
5. Scan the table: scan
```
row f1:q1 [] v1
row f2:q2 [] v2
row f3:q3 [] v3
```
6. Delete the test table: root@accumulo test> deletetable
  Table: [test] has been deleted.

The following example shows the verification of an unsecured Operational Database installation:

root@accumulo> createtable test
root@accumulo test> userpermissions
System permissions: System.GRANT, System.CREATE_TABLE, System.DROP_TABLE, System.ALTER_TABLE, System.CREATE_USER, System.DROP_USER, System.ALTER_USER, System.SYSTEM, System.CREATE_NAMESPACE, System.DROP_NAMESPACE, System.ALTER_NAMESPACE, System.OBTAIN_DELEGATION_TOKEN

Namespace permissions (accumulo): Namespace.READ, Namespace.ALTER_TABLE

Table permissions (accumulo.metadata): Table.READ, Table.ALTER_TABLE
Table permissions (accumulo.replication): Table.READ
Table permissions (accumulo.root): Table.READ, Table.ALTER_TABLE
Table permissions (test): Table.READ, Table.WRITE, Table.BULK_IMPORT, Table.ALTER_TABLE, Table.GRANT, Table.DROP_TABLE, Table.GET_SUMMARIES
root@accumulo test> insert row f1 q1 v1
root@accumulo test> insert row f2 q2 v2
root@accumulo test> insert row f3 q3 v3
root@accumulo test> scan
row f1:q1 [] v1
row f2:q2 [] v2
row f3:q3 [] v3
root@accumulo test> deletetable
deletetable { test } (yes|no)? yes
Table: [test] has been deleted.
