---------------------------------
Component/s: Security

> Hive's metastore when run as a thrift service creates directories as the
> service user instead of the real user issuing create table/alter table etc.

> If the thrift metastore service is running as the user "hive" then all table
> directories as a result of create table are created as that user rather than
> the user who actually issued the create table command. This is different
> semantically from non-thrift mode (i.e. local mode) when clients directly
> connect to the metastore. In the latter case, directories are created as the
> real user. The thrift mode should do the same.
