Re: Spark Worker node accessing Hive metastore

Thanks Akhil. So the worker spark node doesn't need access to metastore to run Hive queries? If yes, which component accesses the metastore? For Hive, the Hive-cli accesses the metastore before submitting M/R jobs. Thanks, Ken -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1

Hi Ken, AFAIK, you can specify the following in the spark-env.sh file across the cluster export HIVE_HOME=/path/to/hive/ export HIVE_CONF_DIR=/path/to/hive/conf/ And it is not necessary for the worker node to have access to the hive's metastore dir. -- View this message in co
