Lenni Kuff commented on SENTRY-476:
-----------------------------------

[~dapengsun] - I don't think that would work because it would be scoped only to the target Hive Server instance. There may be other Hive Metastore Clients that are not obeying the locking.

> SENTRY should have the ability to check the database and table in metastore

> Currently when sentry grant privilege to object, such as database, table, it doesn't do the check whether if the object is existed in HIVE, we should add a configuration property, if the property is enabled, sentry will connect to HIVE Metastore and check if the object is exist or not.
