[jira] [Created] (RANGER-1553) Audit log record for 'show databases' hive command contains all tags

Abhay Kulkarni created RANGER-1553:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Audit log record for 'show databases' hive command contains all tags
                 Key: RANGER-1553
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-1553
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Ranger
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Abhay Kulkarni
            Assignee: Abhay Kulkarni
             Fix For: 1.0.0


If hive service is associated with a tag service, then when a ‘show databases’ command is authorized by Ranger, potentially, all tags associated with all hive entities are evaluated to determine the authorization of the command. Consequently, the audit log record generated for it will show, in the tags field, every tag provisioned for any hive entity in Ranger. With large number of tags associated with hive entities, the audit log is very cluttered and does not convey meaningful information. For the sake of usability, it will be better not to log all tags in the corresponding audit log record for this specific command.
