[jira] [Commented] (RANGER-1697) Update NiFi service def

["Nikhil Purbhe (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1697?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16144849#comment-16144849 ] 

Nikhil Purbhe commented on RANGER-1697:
---------------------------------------

There are 3 cases we have to consider,

1)Fresh install on ranger 0.7 : *No issue*

2)Upgrade scenario to Ranger 0.7 with exclude flag policy value as false :*No issue*
(policies other than "exclude resource flag value as true" will not be an issue)

3)Upgrade scenario to Ranger 0.7 with the policy which contains exclude flag value as true for the resource.
-this case will create *Issue* after an upgrade for existing nifi policies which contain *exclude flag on* (if there are any)
, because after the upgrade we will not be showing exclude flag, but it will behave as "exclude policy value true" during policy enforcement.
hence such policies with "exclude flag value as true" need to be handled. 

can you please let me know what approach to consider for case 3.

> Apache NiFi would like to update the service def file to ensure more consistent policy support between NiFi and Ranger. NiFi is in the process of introducing an improved Ranger authorizer that allows the policies to be viewed in NiFi UI for easier, in app, understanding of the policies configured in Ranger UI. This effort is being tracked with this JIRA [1].
> I would like to supply a patch with updates to the NiFi service def file.
> Thanks!
