hive host proxy setting clarification

[#1]

For proxy property hadoop.proxyuser.hive.hosts it appears that this setting takes the hive server rather than the hive clients as Hive server is making the request on behalf of the hive clients. If we change the property to any other hosts other then hive server hive fails to run. So is it mandatory to set this to hive server always. According to apache website https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/current/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/Superusers.html we can configure any value for hosts parameter based on that it should work. So is this not true for hive?

[#2 · Accepted solution]

hadoop.proxyuser.hive.hosts is Hostname from where superuser hive can connect

Based on the above definition, try running the test for hive user.
