HCatalog should have a way to add Job Credentials for input format ------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HCATALOG-297 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-297 Project: HCatalog Issue Type: Improvement Components: security Affects Versions: 0.4 Reporter: Rohini Palaniswamy Assignee: Sushanth Sowmyan To talk to external systems like hbase, delegation tokens have to be added to the JobConf Credentials object. In case of OutputFormat, this can be done in checkOutputSpecs. But in case of input, the getSplits() cannot be used as the JobConf passed is only readable. Need a solution to pass job credentials to the job in that case. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
