Carl Steinbach commented on HIVE-3016: -------------------------------------- bq. To enable better tracking of capacity utilization by teams sharing the warehouse, we want the ability to group users by teams and let them operate within a database as their logical container. I don't see how you accomplish that by adding this configuration property. Also, how do you plan to prevent users from simply disabling this property? > Allow disabling foreign table access (cross database) using hiveconf > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3016 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3016 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Sambavi Muthukrishnan > Assignee: Sambavi Muthukrishnan > Priority: Minor > Attachments: hive-3016.1.patch.txt > > Original Estimate: 48h > Remaining Estimate: 48h > > Disallow cross database access to tables using Y.T syntax under a specific > configuration in HiveConf. > i.e. when hive.error.on.crossdatabaseaccess is set to true, return an error > when Y.T syntax is used to access tables and Y is not the current database. > This can be set both via the client and in hive-site.xml, and will default to > false. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
