------------------------------------

             Summary: Add timestamps to startup message in hive scripts.
                 Key: HIVE-14672
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14672
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Hive
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Naveen Gangam
            Assignee: Naveen Gangam
            Priority: Minor


if hive services are started as background processes (most certainly the case) with output from stdout and stderr redirected to a file, certain fatal errors, like OutOfMemoryErrors, are printed to stderr. Such errors often do not have a timestamp associated with it. So overtime, after multiple restarts of the hive processes, the stdout/err redirect log looks like this
{code}
Starting Hive Metastore Server
Starting Hive Metastore Server
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Requested array size exceeds VM limit
Starting Hive Metastore Server
{code}

It would be useful to have a timestamp associated with the "Starting Hive Metastore Server" message to help debug when such errors may have occurred so we could look in the corresponding logs to help narrow down the issue.
