The `hive.engine.enabled` configuration drives if the SerDe is set on the Iceberg table, or not. The HMS client tries to instantiate the SerDe if it is set, and fails if it is not on the classpath. So the flag is necessary for Spark users who does not have the IcebergSerDe on the classpath to access the table through the HMS client. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
