Hi, I have a very simple question. Can hive dB have multiple ranger policies?

In any circumstance can you restrict having multiple ranger policies?

Hi @PJ

It depends on you, how you define policies for hive DB. You may restrict by multiple ranger policies.

What is your exactly question can you explain it?

@Vinay

Thanks for the reply. I want to know how to restrict a hive database not to have more than 1 policy.

Thanks for your time.

@PJ

you can use * in database column while define policy in ranger's hive plugin. * will apply restriction policy for all hive DB.
