Gunther Hagleitner commented on HIVE-4470: ------------------------------------------ [~appodictic] Can you explain what you mean by that some more? You mean an admin can set defaults, but we can't make sure someone submitting a query doesn't overwrite it? HiveConf only exists on the server in this case, so does the rest of the planning/submission code. Why wouldn't be be able to limit the user in what they can do? > HS2 should disable local query execution > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4470 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4470 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HiveServer2 > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > > Hive can run queries in local mode (instead of using a cluster), if the size > is small. This happens when "hive.exec.mode.local.auto" is set to true. > This would affect the stability of the hive server2 node, if you have heavy > query processing happening on it. Bugs in udfs triggered by a bad record can > potentially add very heavy load making the server inaccessible. > By default, HS2 should set these parameters to disallow local execution or > send and error message if user tries to set these. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
