Rohini Palaniswamy updated HIVE-2504:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-2504.patch
Made the newly created subdirectories get the same permissions as the parent by
setting it explicitly on them. The table directories will get the permissions
of the database directory and the partition directories will get the
permissions of the table directory.
Removed the hive.files.umask.value configuration parameter.
> Warehouse table subdirectories should inherit the group permissions of the
> warehouse parent directory

> When the Hive Metastore creates a subdirectory in the Hive warehouse for
> a new table it does so with the default HDFS permissions. Since the default
> dfs.umask value is 022, this means that the new subdirectory will not inherit
> the
> group write permissions of the hive warehouse directory.
> We should make the umask used by Warehouse.mkdirs() configurable, and set
> it to use a default value of 002.
