Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-7342:
-------------------------------------
bq. does this have effect on HCatCLI, HCat and WebHCat?
In remote metatstore mode, there would not be any impact. If embedded metastore
is used with any of the above,and hivemeastore-site.xml is in conf dir (or
classpath in general), it will add that config as well (overriding any existing
params that are redefined).

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Configuration, HiveServer2, Metastore

>
> There is currently a single configuration file for all components in hive.
> ie, components such as hive cli, hiveserver2 and metastore all read from the
> same hive-site.xml.
> It will be useful to have a server specific hive-site.xml, so that you can
> have some different configuration value set for a server. For example, you
> might want to enabled authorization checks for hiveserver2, while disabling
> the checks for hive cli. The workaround today is to add any component
> specific configuration as a commandline (-hiveconf) argument.
> Using server specific config files (eg hiveserver2-site.xml,
> metastore-site.xml) that override the entries in hive-site.xml will make the
> configuration much more easy to manage.
