submit a sql with beeline or hue, the job submiter will be 'hive'

rube — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:58:37 GMT

I had login beeline/hue with the user 'test'.

Then I submit a sql,on the yarn web,I can see the job submiter is 'hive',why?

Obviously the user must be 'test'.

Is there a configuration I had missed?

(cdh5.2.0)

You probably don't have HiveServer2 Impersonation
(hive.server2.enable.doAs) turned on

I have used sentry service. If I turn this on,It will be an error:

1 validation error.

Hive Impersonation is enabled for Hive Server2 role 'hiveserver2 (slave-73)'. Hive Impersonation should be disabled to enable Hive authorization using Sentry

I think that the whole point of Sentry, Hive owns the data and guarantees
fine grain permissions to the user submitting jobs. As Hive needs to own
the data, the jobs are submitted as Hive.
