• User sync source is set to Unix (ranger.usersync.source.impl.class set to org.apache.ranger.unixusersync.process.UnixUserGroupBuilder)

Steps

1. Set ranger.usersync.group.based.role.assignment.rules to ROLE_SYS_ADMIN:u:user2
2. Restart Ranger
3. In ranger admin page go to Settings -> Users/Groups. Look for user2, and observe it has the role 'User'

user2 should get 'Admin' role right after the first restart.
