--------------------------------------------
This can mean, admin users cannot delete db folders directly through HDFS.
> HDFS plugin should handle Server level privileges

> Key: SENTRY-751
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-751
> Project: Sentry
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Hdfs Plugin
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar
>
> Currently the HDFS plugin handles DB and Table level permissions. The Server
> level privileges are only honored by SQL plugins. This creates a bit of
> inconsistency between the privilege models. A role with server level
> privilege can access any table in Hive but won't be able to access the
> underlying files on HDFS.
> The HDFS plugin should handle the Server level privileges the same way as
> Hive plugin.
