Description

I have deployed secure cluster recently, and found we miss important information in http://hbase.apache.org/book.html#security

Some configurations like

<property>
  <name>hbase.regionserver.kerberos.principal</name> 
  <value>hbase/[e-mail]</value> 
</property> 

<property> 
  <name>hbase.regionserver.keytab.file</name> 
  <value>/etc/hbase/conf/hbase.keytab</value> 
</property>

<property> 
  <name>hbase.master.kerberos.principal</name> 
  <value>hbase/[e-mail]</value> 
</property> 

<property> 
<name>hbase.master.keytab.file</name> 
<value>/etc/hbase/conf/hbase.keytab</value> 
</property>

And i found more detailed document in http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/5-5-x/topics/cdh_sg_hbase_authentication.html
