Hi Srinath,

No, this has not been tested in multiple nodes. I told Niranda here in my
last mail, to test a cluster with the same set of hardware we have, that we
are using to test our large data set with Hive. As for the effort to make
the change, we still have to figure out the MT aspects of Shark here.
Sinthuja was working on making the latest Hive version MT ready, and most
probably, we can do the same changes to the Hive version Shark is using. So
after we do that, the integration should be seamless. And also, as I
mentioned earlier here, we are also going to test this with the APIM Hive
script, to check if there are any unforeseen incompatibilities.

Cheers,
Anjana.
