-----------------------------------

             Summary: Allow each HiveContext to have distinct users that they 
will use to connect to the HiveMetastore
                 Key: SPARK-14276
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-14276
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Alex Forbes
            Priority: Minor


Currently the HiveContexts use the UserGroupInformation to determine which user 
to connect to the HiveMetastore.

This is either determined from an Environment variable, the user that is 
running the spark process, or a static user.

With Spark 1.6 there was the introduction of multiple HiveContext Sessions but 
each session uses the same HiveClient which uses the same user.

We would like access to specify which user to connect to the Hive Metastore for 
each HiveContext so that it will integrate better with our Authentication and 
Authorization mechanisms.
