HiveServer2 in HTTP mode

[#1]

This is a simple why question, does anybody know why Cloudera does not support http for HiveServer2 as a transport.mode? I tried to override the configuration values via Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for hive-site.xml:

 hive.server2.transport.mode=binary 

 hive.server2.thrift.http.port=10001

 hive.server2.thrift.http.path=cliservice

But these changes were filtered out by Cloudera Manager and did not appear in the /etc/hive/hive-site.xml file after service restart.
