Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-4996:
---------------------------------
In some more testing, the workaround for the issue is to set the configuration
hive.metastore.ds.retry.attempts=0, as this de-activates RetryingMetastore. If
there is any transient BoneCP error like this, RetryingHMSHandler will retry
whole transaction from the beginning.
> unbalanced calls to openTransaction/commitTransaction
