What determines what user / groups Ranger can see when setting policies?

[Reed Villanueva <rv...@ucera.org>]

Have users on local machines that have HDFS /user dirs that do not show up
as possible users when setting Ranger policies [image: enter image

is what determines if Ranger can see cluster users for setting policies
(and is there an easy way to manage this via ambari)?
