Chris Drome commented on HIVE-13990:
------------------------------------
Fair comment [~thejas]. Let me review the patch to see where this can be cached.
In Hadoop-2.6 (when we first encountered this) I was informed that there was no
way of asking the NN for this information.
> Client should not check dfs.namenode.acls.enabled to determine if extended
> ACLs are supported

> dfs.namenode.acls.enabled is a server side configuration and the client

> querying the NN whether ACLs are supported the client should try and catch
> the appropriate exception.
