ATTACHMENT ID: 12632066
> Hive (and HCatalog) don't allow super-users to add partitions to tables.
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-6392
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6392
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Authorization
> Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.13.0
> Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
> Assignee: Mithun Radhakrishnan
> Attachments: HIVE-6392.branch-0.12.patch, HIVE-6392.patch

>
> HDFS allows for users to be added to a "supergroup" (identified by the
> "dfs.permissions.superusergroup" key in hdfs-site.xml). Users in this group
> are allowed to modify HDFS contents regardless of the path's ogw permissions.
> However, Hive's StorageBasedAuthProvider disallows such a superuser from
> adding partitions to any table that doesn't explicitly grant write
> permissions to said superuser. This causes the odd scenario where the
> superuser writes data to a partition-directory (under the table's path), but
> can't register the appropriate partition.
> I have a patch that brings the Metastore's behaviour in line with what the
> HDFS allows.
