             Summary: support hiveserver2,metastore specific config files
                 Key: HIVE-7342
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7342
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Configuration, HiveServer2, Metastore
            Reporter: Thejas M Nair
            Assignee: Thejas M Nair


There is currently a single configuration file for all components in hive. ie, 
components such as hive cli, hiveserver2 and metastore all read from the same 
hive-site.xml. 
It will be useful to have a server specific hive-site.xml, so that you can have 
some different configuration value set for a server. For example, you might 
want to enabled authorization checks for hiveserver2, while disabling the 
checks for hive cli. The workaround today is to add any component specific 
configuration as a commandline (-hiveconf) argument.

Using server specific config files (eg hiveserver2-site.xml, 
metastore-site.xml) that override the entries in hive-site.xml will make the 
configuration much more easy to manage.
