> When Apache Livy launches Spark sessions (interactive SQL sessions or batch jobs) against a TLS-enabled Hive Metastore (HMS), the Spark driver fails during Hive Metastore client initialization. This prevents any workload that requires HMS access — such as querying Hive tables, accessing Iceberg tables via the Hive catalog, or running SQL sessions with {{{}livy.repl.enable-hive-context=true{}}}.
> h3. Problem
> The failure is caused by an SSL/TLS handshake error between the Spark driver (running inside a Livy-managed session) and the Hive Metastore. The Java keystore or truststore used for the SSL connection cannot be loaded, typically with a password verification error.
> h3. Steps to Reproduce
>  # Deploy Livy on a cluster where Hive Metastore is configured to use SSL/TLS.
>  # Ensure {{livy.repl.enable-hive-context=true}} and that {{hive-site.xml}} (with HMS SSL settings) is available on the Livy server classpath.
>  # Create a Livy interactive SQL session or submit a batch job that accesses Hive/Iceberg tables via the Hive Metastore.
>  # Observe the Spark driver logs during session startup or first HMS access.
> h3. Expected Behavior
> Livy should propagate the required Hive Metastore SSL/TLS configuration (keystore/truststore locations, passwords, and related settings) to the Spark driver so that the Hive Metastore client can establish a secure connection successfully.
> h3. Actual Behavior
> The Spark driver fails to instantiate the Hive Metastore client with SSL-related keystore errors.
> h3. Possible Error Trace
> {code:java}
> HiveException: Unable to instantiate SessionHiveMetaStoreClient
> ...
> Caused by: java.io.IOException: Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect
> Caused by: java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: Password verification failed {code}
