[jira] Created: (HADOOP-4580) streamline metastore options in hive-default.xml

streamline metastore options in hive-default.xml
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4580
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4580
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: contrib/hive
    Affects Versions: 0.19.0
            Reporter: Prasad Chakka
            Priority: Minor


there are quite a few metastore configurations for hive.

1) specify the type of metastore to use (sql or file -- usefilestore option)
2) embedded derby datbase (by setting JDBCDriverName option)
3) local mode (where each instance of hive connects to the sql store directly  -- local option)
4) remote mode (where each instance of hive connects to a metastore server instead of sql store (using uri option)

names and setting all these options are very confusing and not simple. This JIRA is to streamline this to make these options more simple.
