Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-16392:
---------------------------------------
Doc note: The removal of *hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms* needs to be
documented in the wiki. It would be good to mention the use of external
security systems and include Ashutosh's comment "user may also choose
SQLStdAuth which ships with Hive if user doesn't want to use external security
system."
Also, the wiki says that when *hive.files.umask.value* was removed in 0.9.0, it
was replaced by *hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms* -- perhaps that should be
updated too.
* [Configuration Properties -- hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.warehouse.subdir.inherit.perms]
* [Configuration Properties -- hive.files.umask.value |
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.files.umask.value]
Added a TODOC3.0 label.
