---------------------------------------
Summary: [Documentation] Remove hive.metastore.warehouse.dir from
Client Configuration Parameters list in Remote Metastore section
Key: HIVE-7903
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7903
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 0.12.0
Reporter: Mariano Dominguez
Source:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AdminManual+MetastoreAdmin#AdminManualMetastoreAdmin-RemoteMetastore
In Remote Metastore deployment mode, neither the Hive CLI nor the Beeline can
change the value of the ‘hive.metastore.warehouse.dir’ property because it is a
“server-side” property.
Changing the value can be accomplished, however, by running in Local Metastore
mode (that is, bypassing the Hive Metastore Server and directly accessing the
Metastore database):
1) At runtime
$ hive --hiveconf hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=<path> -e “<query>”
$ beeline --hiveconf hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=<path> -n <username> -p
<password> -u <connection_string> -e <query>
2) In the shell
hive > SET hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=<path>;
beeline > SET hive.metastore.warehouse.dir=<path>;
3) From configuration file: hive-site.xml
This property gets cached once a table/database is created; therefore,
subsequent value changes will not take effect. You will need to start a new
session to re-set the property.
