Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-5659:
----------------------------------------

While I agree with the order Nick is putting forth, and thus, a need for the 
addResources to not clobber the existing set config, I have to say I balk at 
the notion of putting hbase-specific config, even if associated with hbase-hive 
integration inside hive-site.xml. That seems to be asking for errors arising 
from messy config keeping. It can lead up to two-sources of truth if hive 
treats hive's copy of hbase config as prime, and hbase server/etc that the 
handler talk to treat hbase config as prime truth.

> As part of the changes to HIVE-5260, it appears that HBase properties set in 
> hive-conf.xml are being clobbered by defaults from hbase-default.xml.
> Specifically, we noticed it when attempting to set hbase.zookeeper.quorum. 
> That value defaults to 'localhost' and results in queries of HBase tables 
> hanging attempting to acquire a lock from a Zookeeper instance which isn't 
> running.
> Any properties set in hive-site.xml will be overwritten by those in 
> hbase-default.xml, which doesn't seem good.
> The call to HBaseConfiguration.addHbaseResources(jobConf) seems to be the 
> culprit, around line 337.
