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 > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SENTRY-476 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-476 > Project: Sentry > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Dapeng Sun > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
