thomaschow opened a new issue #2741:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/2741


   Currently, the hive metastore client used in the iceberg HiveClientPool and 
HiveCatalog is 
[`HiveMetastoreClient`](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/blob/c3ac4c6ca74a0013b4705d5bd5d17fade8e6f499/hive-metastore/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/hive/HiveClientPool.java#L32).
 This client implementation doesn't support retry on failure as stated in: 
https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/6246c47b95f6cab7ea24d1deadfd13b2b43cf876/standalone-metastore/metastore-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveMetaStoreClient.java#L99-L100.
 The recommendation is to use 
[`RetryingMetaStoreClient`](https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/6246c47b95f6cab7ea24d1deadfd13b2b43cf876/standalone-metastore/metastore-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/RetryingMetaStoreClient.java#L63)
 where we can configure retry delays and timeouts. 
   
   We'd like for iceberg to be able to either support a pluggable HMS client 
implementation, or switch to just using the `RetryingMetaStoreClient` entirely.
