> The current defaults of hive.hmshandler.retry.attempts=1 and
> hive.hmshandler.retry.interval=1s are very small. In some cases one retry is
> not sufficient for successful command execution.
>
> I have seen cases, specially after metastore being idle for sometime, when it
> takes 2 attempts for the db action to succeed. In this case, it as a
> Communications link failure/connection lost error.
