Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-1837: ---------------------------------------- You get this feature for free when you move to secure Hadoop. A mapreduce job by default gets a token which expires in 24 hrs. So, usually MR job spawned by Hive query will fail after that time. Job may request renewal upto 7 days. Beyond that, special provisions are required. So, timeout is inherently built into secure hadoop. > optional timeout for hive clients > --------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1837 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1837 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Namit Jain > Assignee: He Yongqiang > Attachments: hive-1837.1.patch, hive-1837.2.patch > > > It would be a good idea to have a optional timeout for hive clients. > We encountered a query today, which seemed to have run by mistake, and it was > running for about a month. > This was holding zookeeper locks, and making the whole debugging more complex > than it should be. > It would be a good idea to have a timeout for a hive client. > @Ning, I remember there was some issue with the Hive client having a timeout > of 1 day with HiPal. > Do you remember the details ? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
