Hello,

I am struggling to create policies on HBase defined by a group. Here is what I 
have done:

1. I create a UNIX user “user1” and add this user to the group “group1”.
2. Ranger UI syncs with UNIX and shows “user1” as an external user belonging to 
the group “group1”. Also, “group1” is automatically created as a new internal 
group in the groups section.
3. I create a HBase policy in RangerUI granting “user1” READ permissions on all 
HBase tables. As expected, “user1” is able to read the tables.
4. I then edit the same policy by also granting “group1” READ permissions on 
all HBase tables. As expected, “user1” is able to read the tables.
5. I then edit the same policy by removing “user1” entirely thus leaving only 
“group1” with READ permissions. Now, “user1” is unable to read the tables 
despite being a member of “group1”

So essentially, what I want to be able to do is assign multiple users to 
“group1” and grant “group1” read access on tables.

Can anyone clarify if this is a bug or if I am doing something incorrectly?

Thanks,
Dale
