Summary: IMPORT should copy files without using doAs user. Key: HIVE-17289 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17289 Project: Hive Issue Type: Sub-task Components: HiveServer2, repl Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Sankar Hariappan Assignee: Sankar Hariappan Fix For: 3.0.0 Currently, IMPORT uses distcp to copy the larger files/large number of files from dump directory to table staging directory. But, this copy fails as distcp is always done with doAs user specified in hive.distcp.privileged.doAs, which is "hdfs' by default. Need to remove usage of doAs user when try to distcp from IMPORT flow. Also, need to set the default config for hive.distcp.privileged.doAs to "hive" as "hdfs" super-user is never allowed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
