Hi all,

I'm currently working on two kerberized clusters and want replicate some tables 
between them, with hive 3.0.1.
I have created two users for this, one for EXPORT operation and one for IMPORT 
operation.
But I stepped on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17606. It seems to 
me that hiveserver2 is making metastore api calls with UGI of the user 
(doAs=True), I'm I right?
Other remark, looking at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HiveReplicationv2Development#HiveReplicationv2Development-MetastorenotificationAPIsecurity,
 why choosing a proxy user from HDFS to perform this authorization check and 
not set a "hive.cluster.administrator" or something like this ? This doesn't 
make sense to allow an replication user to be allowed to impersonate other 
users.

Regards,

Thibault VERBEQUE.
