Selvamohan Neethiraj updated RANGER-311:
----------------------------------------
Parent Issue: RANGER-324 (was: RANGER-278)
> Turning on new validation rules on an existing system/policies could cause
> problems. We need a way to mitigate those possible problems.
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: RANGER-311
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-311
> Project: Ranger
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Alok Lal
> Fix For: 0.5.0
>
>
> One use case is that adding an existing policy via grant/revoke may fail
> because that "update" runs afoul with new validation rules thereby preventing
> successful grant/revoke to function. Another use case might be someone
> trying to bulk load (migrate) policies from, say, dev to test to production.
> And such a bulk load might be denied either due to incomplete policies in
> source system or due to newly imposed "fk" constraints.
> Possible solutions could be a combination of the following:
> - Provide for sensible auto correction of "common" and/or "simple" problems.
> Some problems may not be sensibly correctable or be risky to auto-correct.
> - Provide a tool that can publish a report about possible bulk load issues.
> This would be coupled with help pages on how to correct a possible problem.
