I am trying to implement the following : 1) Ranger Hive plugin 2) Set up ranger plugin for metastore using HDP 2.5, ranger 0.6.0 Below are some of the settings in hive-site.xml : hive.metastore.pre.event.listeners=org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.AuthorizationPreEventListener hive.security.metastore.authorization.manager=org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.DefaultHiveMetastoreAuthorizationProvider hive.users.in.admin.role=admin,root hive.server2.enable.doAs=true hive.security.authorization.enabled=true hive.security.authorization.manager=org.apache.ranger.authorization.hive.authorizer.RangerHiveAuthorizerFactory hive.security.authenticator.manager=org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.SessionStateUserAuthenticator hive.conf.restricted.list=hive.security.authorization.enabled,hive.security.authorization.manager,hive.security.authenticator.manager Following are the questions that I have for the above implementation : 1) When I create a policy in the Ranger Policy Manger UI and try to test it out from beeline, it is not working. Are the above settings in the hive-site.xml correct? 2) If I create a new role and set it to user from hive CLI, will i be able to see that in the Ranger Policy Manager UI ->HiveService->SERVICE_NAME 3) Is HDFS plugin mandatory for the above set-up? i.e can I set policies from UI and hive CLI without using HDFS policy and HDFS plugin setup? 4) is Solr installation mandatory for setting up the ranger-hive-plugin?(in my current set-up, i dont have the solr setup) ...
