> The HiveCLI HoS code relies on the system property {{user.name}} when 
> performing impersonations. The code decides to do an impersonation if the 
> {{user.name}} system property does not match the current user who is 
> launching the HiveCLI client.  However, when confronted with a long user 
> name, some shells and linux distros may opt to truncate the user name to a 
> certain size to conserve screen space. In these scenarios, the current user 
> name does not match the {{user.name}} system property and never will, so 
> impersonation will always happen, even though the user is trying to 
> impersonate themselves. If YARN is not setup to allow the current user to 
> impersonate, YARN will reject the request.
