             Summary: Sentry validate Groups on Grant
                 Key: SENTRY-616
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-616
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ryan Pridgeon
            Priority: Minor


Currently I can grant a Role to Groups which do not exists. Although this isn't a huge issue it could help to avoid future headaches. 

e.g. 

Grant role Admin to group userss; 
Ok
id ryan
uid=0(ryan) gid=0(ryan) groups=0(users)

This is a relatively easy to debug issue, but it would be nice to have a validation to prevent me from having it in the first place. 

A simple Warning that let's me know I am granting to a non-existent group would suffice. This way I am still notified for potential typos, but not prevented from creating groups after assigning Roles.
