             Summary: Streaming API TransactionBatch.beginNextTransaction() 
does not wait for locks
                 Key: HIVE-12421
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12421
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HCatalog, Transactions
    Affects Versions: 0.14.0
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
            Assignee: Eugene Koifman


TransactionBatchImpl.beginNextTransactionImpl() has

{noformat}
        LockResponse res = msClient.lock(lockRequest);
        if (res.getState() != LockState.ACQUIRED) {
          throw new TransactionError("Unable to acquire lock on " + endPt);
        }
{noformat}

This means that if there are any competing locks already take, this will throw 
an Exception to client.  This doesn't seem like the right behavior.  It should 
block.

We could also add TransactionBatch.beginNextTransaction(long timeoutMs) to  
give the client more control.
