Roman,

hive comes with the derby library and should work out of the box.
Let me try to get it working with derby, and followup on postgresql.

All,

It looks like bigtop-0.3.1 branch doesn't seem to install hive-metastore
with puppet modules.
Looking at the puppet module for hive, it only installs the hive package.
I'm trying to understand if there was an issue to enable hive-metastore
installation and starting the service?
Filed a jira for installing hive-metastore in hive puppet module. -
BIGTOP-722
No issue as far as I can tell -- just an omission. There's a bit of complication
that I can foresee which is Hive metastore really benefits from a SQL
server behind it (I would recommend Derby). Thus if you really want to fix
it in a reliable way Bigtop puppet will have to handle deploying one of the
OS SQL servers (PostgreSQL perhaps?). I see there's a few puppet modules
available on the Forge for doing that:
     http://forge.puppetlabs.com/modules?q=postgresql&commit=Go

It would be really nice if somebody could figure out how to get one work
in Bigtop (providing that licensing is compatible).

Thanks,
Roman.
