> Support viewfs in Sentry Namenode plugin
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: SENTRY-1627
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-1627
> Project: Sentry
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Hdfs Plugin, Hive Plugin, Sentry
> Affects Versions: 1.5.1
> Reporter: Qianbo Huai
> Priority: Major
> Labels: experimental, hdfs, viewfs
> Fix For: 1.5.1
>
>
> The View File System (ViewFs) provides a way to manage multiple Hadoop file
> system namespaces (or namespace volumes). It is particularly useful for
> clusters having multiple namenodes, and hence multiple namespaces, in HDFS
> Federation. ViewFs is analogous to client side mount tables in some
> Unix/Linux systems.
> In a ViewFs deployment, Sentry MetastorePlugin sees viewfs schemed paths but
> drops them in PathsUpdate.parsePath as it hardcodes the support for only hdfs
> schemed path.
> If paths updates are sent to Sentry Namenode plugin, the viewfs paths need to
> be converted to per-namenode (HDFS cluster) paths.
