Description

We currently ship examples of how to configure audit log into HDFS (disabled by default). Audit to HDFS is supposed to be for long-term storage and is not searchable or presentable on Ranger Admin UI.

To be able to see and search audit log entries, the audit entries should be sent to Solr, which is a preferred way. We need to provide a set of properties that users should be able to edit in hawq-ranger-audit.xml file to enable sending audit events to Solr.
