To help get the Accumulo root password out of my accu= mulo-site.xml file (security folks get touchy when they find 'root'= and 'password' together in a clear text file), I'd like to con= figure the tracer to run as a separate user.

Is it as simple as:

1. create a user and give that user create_t= able permissions
2. edit accumulo-site.xml and set trace.user valu= e to new user and trace.password to its password
3. stop the tracer= using bin/stop-server.sh <tracer-server> tracer
4. drop the existing trace table
5. start the trac= er using bin/start-server.sh <tracer-server> tracer

Thanks in advance everyone.
