Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HCATALOG-80:
------------------------------------------
The UGI.isSecurityEnabled() check in itself is not sufficient because it is
still possible for security to be enabled, and yet not have the token set, as
would be the case if HCat were called from oozie, but the MR token not be set
up in advance. In that case, we do want a failure to occur, but that failure
would come from har itself. This is a stricter check for the variable we want
to set itself.
> NullPointerException when using and running har in non-secure mode

> Running tests in non-secure mode with har enabled fails because of a NPE
> caused by trying to set mapreduce.job.credentials.binary in Configuration
> with null. This is not hit by default because we don't use har in our default
> configs, and our har testing has primarily been on secure mode.
