-----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Audit log to understand the changes to path and 
permission information in Sentry namenode-plugin
                 Key: SENTRY-2323
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-2323
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Sentry
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: kalyan kumar kalvagadda


Currently we do not have any clue on what’s going on with the ACL information 
in Sentry namenode plug-in.
*Solution: *To understand the changes happening to HDFS ACL’s, sentry could use 
the current HDFS audit logging to log the ACL changes and event that triggered 
the change.
# Permission grants and event that caused it.
** Let’s take an example: READ permission granted on /user/hive/warehouse/x/y/z 
to groups group1, group2.. etc Event: Explicit Grant
# Permission revoke and the event that caused it.
** Let’s take an example:
READ permission removed from /user/hive/warehouse/x/y/z to groups group1, 
group2.. etc Event: Explicit Revoke.
READ/WRITE permissions removed from /user/hive/warehouse/x/y/z to groups 
group1, group2.. etc Event: Explicit File removed.
** Permission change because of changes to roles is not possible to show as the 
data would be huge.
