@attilabukor  Hi, Thank you for your comment. Yesterday, I got a comment from HaoHao about this issue. The issue not being able to create KUDU table on CDH 6.3.2 is related to remote HMS configuration in hive-site.xml   KuduTable.java ( on CDH 6.3.2 ) has a logic validating if `hmsuris` is null or empty.
