Configure and Start Apache Hive and Apache HCatalog

Prior to starting the upgrade process, set the following in your hive configuration file:
```
datanucleus.autoCreateSchema=false
```
Copy the jdbc connector jar from OLD_HIVE_HOME/lib to CURRENT_HIVE_HOME/lib.

Upgrade the Apache Hive Metastore database schema. Restart the Hive Metastore database and run:

/usr/hdp/current/hive-metastore/bin/schematool -upgradeSchema -dbType <$databaseType>

The value for $databaseType can be derby, mysql, oracle or postgres.

Note

If you are using Postgres 8 and Postgres 9, you should reset the Hive Metastore database owner to <HIVE_USER>:

sudo <POSTGRES_USER>
ALTER DATABASE <HIVE-METASTORE-DB-NAME> OWNER TO <HIVE_USER>

Note

If you are using Oracle 11, you may see the following error message:

You can safely ignore this message. The error is in the pre-upgrade script and can be ignored; the schematool succeeded.

	Note
	Copy only the necessary configuration files. Do not copy the env.sh files, for example, hadoop-env.sh, hive-env.sh, and so forth. Additionally, all env.sh files must be properly configured.

Download and extract the HDP companion files (see "Download the Companion Files" in Chapter 1 of the Manual Install Guide).
Copy the hive-site.xml file in the configuration_files/hive directory of the extracted companion files to the etc/hive/conf directory on your Hive host machine. This new version of the hive-site.xml file contains new properties for HDP-2.2 features.

Edit the hive-site.xml file and modify the properties based on your environment. Search for TODO in the file for the properties to replace.

Edit the connection properties for your Hive metastore database in hive-site.xml:

<property>
 <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL</name>
 <value>jdbc:mysql://TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-SERVER:
   TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-PORT/TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-NAME
   ?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true</value>
 <description>Enter your Hive Metastore Connection URL, 
   for example if MySQL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mysql
   ?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true</description> 
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionUserName</name>
 <value>TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-USER-NAME</value>
 <description>Enter your Hive Metastore database user name.</description>
</property>
 
<property> 
 <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword</name> 
 <value>TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-PASSWORD</value> 
 <description>Enter your Hive Metastore database password.</description>
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName</name>
 <value>TODO-HIVE-METASTORE-DB-CONNECTION-DRIVER-NAME</value>
 <description>Enter your Hive Metastore Connection Driver Name, 
   for example if MySQL: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</description>
</property>

Edit the following properties in the hive-site.xml file:

<property>
 <name>fs.file.impl.disable.cache</name>
 <value>false</value>
 <description>Set to false or remove fs.file.impl.disable.cache</description> 
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>fs.hdfs.impl.disable.cache</name>
 <value>false</value>
 <description>Set to false or remove fs.hdfs.impl.disable.cache
 </description>
<property>

Optional: If you want Hive Authorization, set the following Hive authorization parameters in the hive-site.xml file:

<property>
 <name>hive.security.authorization.enabled</name>
 <value>true</value>
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>hive.security.authorization.manager</name>
 <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.
   StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider</value>
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>hive.security.metastore.authorization.manager</name>
 <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.authorization.
   StorageBasedAuthorizationProvider</value>
</property>
 
<property>
 <name>hive.security.authenticator.manager</name>
 <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.security.ProxyUserAuthenticator</value>
</property>

For a remote Hive metastore database, set the IP address (or fully-qualified domain name) and port of the metastore host using the following hive-site.xml property value.
(To enable HiveServer2, please this property value empty.)
```
<property> 
 <name>hive.metastore.uris</name> 
 <value>thrift://$metastore.server.full.hostname:9083</value> 
 <description>URI for client to contact metastore server. 
   To enable HiveServer2, leave the property value empty. 
   </description>
</property>
```
You can further fine-tune your configuration settings based on node hardware specifications, using the HDP utility script.

Start Hive.
On the Hive Metastore host machine, run the following command:
su - hive
nohup /usr/hdp/current/hive-metastore/bin/hive --service metastore>/var/log/hive/hive.out 2>/var/log/hive/hive.log &
Start Hive Server2.
On the Hive Server2 host machine, run the following command:
su - hive
nohup /usr/hdp/current/hive-server2/bin/hiveserver2 -hiveconf hive.metastore.uris=" " -hiveconf hive.log.file=hiveserver2.log >/var/log/hive/hiveserver2.out 2> /var/log/hive/hiveserver2err.log &
where $HIVE_USER is the Hive Service user. For example, hive.
