Larry McCay commented on HIVE-7634: ----------------------------------- Hi [~jdere] - there are similar uptake jiras being tracked on HADOOP-10904. Those patches may be of interest to you. > Use Configuration.getPassword() if available to eliminate passwords from > hive-site.xml > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7634 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7634 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Security > Reporter: Jason Dere > Assignee: Jason Dere > > HADOOP-10607 provides a Configuration.getPassword() API that allows passwords > to be retrieved from a configured credential provider, while also being able > to fall back to the HiveConf setting if no provider is set up. Hive should > use this API for versions of Hadoop that support this API. This would give > users the ability to remove the passwords from their Hive configuration files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
