Hi Pala, The doAs turning off requirement is the last entry in the table on that page. It needs to be turned off while using the pool of sessions because once the session has started, there is currently no way of changing the user of the session. With the doAs turned off, since everything runs as user hive, that problem is avoided.
However, as you mentioned, if you have the case of needing to audit etc., you cannot use the pool. doAs disable is the requirement for SQL standard authorization (HIVE-5837) as well. The initial goal was to address the case where there are users running an interactive set of queries and others running batch queries. The users running interactive queries would use the pool and its cached resources not minding the lack of auditing whereas the users running batch can run as themselves and get their own sessions. We are looking to address the issue of different users creating tables and auditing and this is a good data point. You are right in that if you have doAs turned on, the behavior is same as the CLI. Thanks Vikram.
