Roshan Naik commented on HIVE-8427: ----------------------------------- Not a security expert. But here is my thoughts... The streaming client (like flume) does not run on the hadoop cluster. It may in fact be streaming to one or more clusters. The reason for using ugi.hasKerberosCredentials() is not to detect if the hadoop cluster is security enabled, but to check if the streaming client has decided to use secure mode connection (by initializing kerberos on the ugi object). The client should be able to maintain multiple connections .. one to a secure cluster, and another to a non-secure cluster. > Hive Streaming : secure streaming hangs leading to time outs. > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-8427 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8427 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HCatalog > Affects Versions: 0.14.0 > Reporter: Roshan Naik > Assignee: Roshan Naik > Labels: ACID, Streaming > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-8427.patch > > > Need to enable Thrift Sasl setting for secure mode communcation -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
