fwiw. i ended up re-creating the ec2 cluster with that same host name just

metastores between different compute paradigms.

hey guys,
here's something bizarre. i created about 200 external tables with a

Upon issuing the drop table command i get this:
Error
Hive doesn't support usage of sasl and TFramedTransport at the same time.
Can anyone please explain me this one? The thing is I get an error while
