In HIVE-17983 I have been working on packaing and start/stop scripts for
the standalone metastore. One question this brings up is how Hive will be
released now, with or without the metastore. I can see two options:
1) We continue to ship the metastore with Hive. Not only does this mean
the meta
#1 is preferable, IMHO.

Alan,
While continuing shipping HMS with Hive makes sense (at least for a while),
what do you think about somehow separating lib/bin directories created in
the distro so Hive and metastore have a separate set of bin/lib dirs?

I think its important to keep supporting "hive --service metastore" for
backwards compatibility. I also think it would be great to have some
separation in the lib/bin if possible so that it is easier for someone who
downloads Hive but just wants to deploy a standalone-metastore to identify
which ja
I’m not seeing the value of moving the jars to a different path. If
someone just wants to run the metastore it will be possible to download it
alone. I’m afraid moving things around will break some script somewhere
that we won’t think to test.

My concern is that usually the scripts just include all the jars in the lib
directory to the classpath. So for metastore they'll include a bunch of
extra jars in undefined order, so as metastore evolves and starts using
different versions of some jars we'll run in weird jar conflicts.
If you think
Oh, may be I misunderstood then. Are you suggesting that hive binaries will
include metastore and there would also be another tar file which only
includes metastore and its dependencies? So if someone just wants to
install metastore they can just download metastore tar ball. For hive,
