Siddharth Wagle resolved AMBARI-2069.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> Allow service components to be deployed with separate configuration paths
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AMBARI-2069
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-2069
> Project: Ambari
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ambari-agent, ambari-server
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Siddharth Wagle
> Assignee: Siddharth Wagle
> Priority: Major
>
> Background:
> We changed the permissions on hive-site.xml from 644 to 660. This was done
> because the metastore password is in clear text.
> This results in clients not being able to access the metastore and hive
> cannot run in client mode. Recomended aproach is splitting the hive configs
> differently for client and hive metastore host.
> The password is required only for the metastore process and the hive client
> config should be readable to all.
> This cannot be achieved currently because the rpm deploys the components with
> dedicated symbolic links to config files, example,
> ]# ls -al /usr/lib/hive/
> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 May 1 23:11 conf -> /etc/hive/conf
