I just installed new 7 node HDP 2.3 on AWS and tried to create hive view. If I try to launch hive view I get error User: sprabhu is not allowed to impersonate admin. Even though I am login Ambari using admin its taking sprabhu.Where as sprabhu is my machine login. I have two questions how can I customize it to take admin user when launching hive view and also if I have to add sprabhu as user and allow it to impersonate admin what is process to do it

Please see this guide http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.2.0.0/bk_ambari_views_guide/content/_setup_HDFS_proxy_user.html

You have to set proxy users as defined in the guide
