Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1667:
----------------------------------
Is it true that the first group is always the primary group (like Unix) ?
If org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation guarantees that, your
approach seems correct.
One more thing to check is what happens in case of creation of a partition via
insert overwrite ?
The temp. folder is moved to the final folder, so you may have to fix there
also.
> Store the group of the owner of the table in metastore

> Currently, the group of the owner of the table is not stored in the metastore.
> Secondly, if you create a table, the table's owner group is set to the group
> for the parent. It is not read from the UGI passed in.
