-----------------------------------
Thanks Sushanth for tracking down the problem. I'll regenerate the patch and
track that on HIVE-7901.
> pig -useHCatalog with embedded metastore fails to pass command line args to
> metastore

> Key: HIVE-6633
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6633
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HCatalog
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0, 0.12.0, 0.13.0, 0.14.0
> Reporter: Eric Hanson
> Assignee: Eric Hanson
> Fix For: 0.13.0

> Attachments: HIVE-6633.01.patch

>
> This fails because the embedded metastore can't connect to the database
> because the command line -D arguments passed to pig are not getting passed to
> the metastore when the embedded metastore is created. Using
> hive.metastore.uris set to the empty string causes creation of an embedded
> metastore.
> pig -useHCatalog "-Dhive.metastore.uris="
> "-Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword=AzureSQLDBXYZ"
> The goal is to allow a pig job submitted via WebHCat to specify a metastore
> to use via job arguments. That is not working because it is not possible to
> pass Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword and other necessary arguments to
> the embedded metastore.
