Alexander Kolbasov commented on HIVE-18449: ------------------------------------------- IMO this patch is most valuable as testing config that allows deterministic testing. Using this as a workaround for other bugs seems to be less useful. > Add configurable policy for choosing the HMS URI from hive.metastore.uris > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-18449 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18449 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Metastore > Reporter: Sahil Takiar > Assignee: Janaki Lahorani > Priority: Major > > HIVE-10815 added logic to randomly choose a HMS URI from > {{hive.metastore.uris}}. It would be nice if there was a configurable policy > that determined how a URI is chosen from this list - e.g. one option can be > to randomly pick a URI, another option can be to choose the first URI in the > list (which was the behavior prior to HIVE-10815). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
