How to restart hive-server2

avatar

While I was having issue setting up the RHive package in HDP 2.4, I was advised to restart hive-server2 after I made some changes in the hive-site.xml file. According to the hortonworks doc, I can do that on the Ambari UI with the "Service Actions" dropdown menu, but I could not find it anywhere on the UI. I've attached a screenshot of my Ambari page as well as a screenshot from the doc.

Any idea what's going on here? Or ways to restart hive-server2 with command line? Thanks in advance!

I wasn't able to log in as admin with the same username and password that I used to log into sandbox as root...

maria_dev has only read_only access for Ambari. Either log in as admin/admin or follow the link and 2.2 SETUP AMBARI ADMIN PASSWORD MANUALLY

Hi @JJ Yang

On the Ambari UI, when you select hive component, go to summary tab. You will see services like the ones below:

Then click on Hiverserver2 , it will take you to the following :

You can restart the service from here.

Hope this helps.
