Summary: HMS: Fix initial delay of housekeeping threads in HMS Key: HIVE-24960 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24960 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Metastore Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan HMS starts house keeping threads in background. However, its initial delay is set to the frequency mentioned in MetastoreTaskThread. [https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveMetaStore.java#L761] For e.g, "hive.hook.proto.events.clean.freq" defaults to "1D" and the cleaner starts its initial iteration after a day. For frequently stopped/started clusters in cloud, this will not be ideal. It will be good to introduce small random delay for the initial scheduling of these threads. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
