Hi, I would like to forbid  "delete forever" action in HUE. I want ALL users to use "move to trash".

I want completely remove "delete forever" action from UI interface.

Sorry I mis-read it! This seems like a good idea to me: https://issues.cloudera.org/browse/HUE-1472

This possibility is not present right now (except about the HDFS trash if you disable it).

 

What would be the use case?

Hi, the usecase is:

I've suddenly deleted 500 GB of data.

By default hadoop fs -rm moves data to trash.

"Delete forever" is extremely dangerous functionality. I want to block it. If somebody wants to delete something forever I want him to go to trash and do it explicitly.
