> Key: HIVE-7890

>
> In SessionState.start [an instance of the the HMSClient is
> created|https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/trunk/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/session/SessionState.java#L367].
> When impersonation is enabled, this call does not occur within a "doas" call
> and thus the HMSClient is created as the server user, not the impersonated
> user.
> Thus calls to the HMS are made by the "hive" user as opposed to the end user.
> This causes file ownership such as a database directory owner to be incorrect.
