---------------------------------------------
Removing 0.7.0 as fix version
> HDFS folder permission exclusively managed my Ranger

> Key: RANGER-693
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-693
> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.5.1
> Reporter: Don Bosco Durai
>
> In HDFS plugin, if there are no policies for the file/folder, then Ranger
> falls backs to HDFS file/folder permission.
> While this is very convenient, but in some cases it is desirable that only
> Ranger manages the policies. Good examples are folders like
> /apps/hive/warehouse or some user folders where it is better that Ranger
> manages the entire permission.
> One suggestion is to mark folders which will be managed by Ranger. For these
> folders, ignore all permissions and ownership set at the HDFS file/folder
> level.
> This will be a very useful feature for Ranger.
