Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-12529: --------------------------------------- Doc note: This adds configuration parameter *hive.txn.manager.dump.lock.state.on.acquire.timeout* and changes the description of *hive.lock.sleep.between.retries* so they need to be documented in the wiki. * [Configuration Properties -- Transactions and Compactor | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-TransactionsandCompactor] * [Configuration Properties -- Locking -- hive.lock.sleep.between.retries | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.lock.sleep.between.retries] > HiveTxnManager.acquireLocks() should not block forever > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-12529 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12529 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Transactions > Affects Versions: 1.0.0 > Reporter: Eugene Koifman > Assignee: Eugene Koifman > Labels: TODOC1.3 > Fix For: 1.3.0, 2.1.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-12529.2.patch, HIVE-12529.4.patch, > HIVE-12529.5.patch, HIVE-12529.patch > > > Currently, in DbTxnManager this method will block until all competing locks > have gone away. > This is not appropriate for all clients.
