    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6417?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13921294#comment-13921294 ] 

Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-6417:
----------------------------------------

Problem is both role creation and adding users in a role is governed by same flag. We need to separate these two tasks such that they are governed by two different flags. Patch forthcoming.

> if metastore is started with hive.users.in.admin.role=user1, then user1 is added admin role to metastore.
> If the value is changed to hive.users.in.admin.role=user2, then user2 should get added to the role in metastore. Right now, if the admin role exists, new users don't get added.
> A work-around is -  user1 adding user2 to the admin role using grant role statement.
