8.0.0 Upgrade
This section describes how to upgrade HPE Data Fabric software.
8.0.0 Data Fabric
HPE Data Fabric is the industry-leading data platform for AI and analytics that solves enterprise business needs.
8.0.0 Administration
This section describes how to manage the nodes and services that make up a cluster.
- Working with Multiple Fabrics Using the Data Fabric UI
  This section describes how you can get started learning about, installing, and using the HPE Data Fabric.
- Administering Users and Clusters
  Lists topics that help manage a Data Fabric cluster.
- Administering Nodes
  Provides a synopsis of managing nodes in a cluster.
- Administering Volumes
  This section provide information about how to organize and manage data using volumes, a unique feature of HPE Data Fabric clusters.
- Administering Files and Directories
- Administering Tables
  Administration of the HPE Data Fabric Database is done primarily via the command line (maprcli) or with the Managed Control System (MCS). Regardless of whether the HPE Data Fabric Database table is used for binary files or JSON documents, the same types of commands are used with slightly different parameter options. HPE Data Fabric Database administration is associated with tables, columns and column families, and table regions.
- Administering Streams
- Administering Data Fabric Gateways
  A HPE Data Fabric gateway mediates one-way communication between a source HPE Data Fabric cluster and a destination cluster. You can replicate HPE Data Fabric Database tables (binary and JSON) and HPE Data Fabric Streams streams. HPE Data Fabric gateways also apply updates from JSON tables to their secondary indexes and propagate Change Data Capture (CDC) logs.

  This section describes how to monitor the health and performance of a MapR cluster.
- Configuring Security
  Describes how to configure security and manage secure clusters.
- Managing Secure Clusters
  Provides procedures that will enable you to use Data Fabric clusters securely.
- Administering the Data Access Gateway
  The HPE Data Fabric Data Access Gateway is a service that acts as a proxy and gateway for translating requests between lightweight client applications and the HPE Data Fabric cluster. This section describes considerations when upgrading the service, how to modify configuration settings, and how to administer and manage the service.
- Planning for High Availability
- Administrator's Reference
  This section contains in-depth reference information for the administrator.

`table cf column securitypolicy remove`

Removes one or more security policies from the list of security policies associated with a field in a HPE Data Fabric Database JSON table.

Permissions Required

To run this command, your user ID must have the following permissions:

adminaccessperm on the table

NOTE

The mapr user is not treated as a superuser. HPE Data Fabric Database does not allow the mapr user to run this command unless that user is given the relevant permission or permissions with access-control expressions.

Syntax

CLI

maprcli table cf column securitypolicy remove
  -path <path>
  -cfname <column family name>
  -column <JSON table field>
  -securitypolicy <comma-delimited list of policies>

REST

http[s]://<host>:<port>/rest/table/cf/column/securitypolicy/remove?path=<path>&cfname=<column-family-name>&column=<JSON-table-field>&securitypolicy=<policies>

Parameters

Parameter	Description
path	The path to the HPE Data Fabric Database table. For a path on the local cluster, start the path at the volume mount point. For example, for a table named `test` under a volume with a mount point at /volume1, specify the following path: `/volume1/test` For a path on a remote cluster, you must also specify the cluster name in the path. For example, for a table named `customer` under `volume1` in the `sanfrancisco` cluster, specify the following path:`/mapr/sanfrancisco/volume1/customer`
cfname	The name or names of the column families containing the security policies you want to remove.
column	The JSON table field.
securitypolicy	The security policy tags to be removed from the list of security policies for the specified JSON table field.

Example

Removes the security policy named newpolicy from the sales field in the default column family of a JSON table named table1:

CLI

maprcli table cf column securitypolicy remove
  -path "/table1"
  -cfname "default"
  -column "sales"
  -securitypolicy "newpolicy"

REST

http[s]://<host>:<port>/rest/table/cf/securitypolicy/remove?path=/table1&cfname=default&column=sales&securitypolicy=newpolicy
