> When starting up HiveMetastore under a Kerberized cluster, the following error occurs:
> {code}
> resource_management.core.exceptions.Fail: Execution of '/usr/bin/kinit -kt /etc/security/keytabs/hive.service.keytab hive/host1.company.com@REALM; ' returned 1. kinit: Keytab contains no suitable keys for hive/host1.company.com@REALM while getting initial credentials
> {code}
> This happens when Hive Metastore and HiveServer2 principals are set up distinct from each other.
> Hive Metastore is not using hive.metastore.kerberos.principal, but instead it uses hive.server2.authentication.kerberos.principal
> Also, the following references hive_conf_dir:
> https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/release-2.1.1/ambari-server/src/main/resources/common-services/HIVE/0.12.0.2.0/package/scripts/hive_metastore.py#L119-L120
> In HDP2.3+ the following file content becomes UNSECURED
> /var/lib/ambari-agent/data/structured-out-status.json
> We need to either reference hive_server_conf_dir or set hive_conf_dir as hive_server_conf_dir somewhere:
> https://github.com/apache/ambari/blob/release-2.1.1/ambari-server/src/main/resources/common-services/HIVE/0.12.0.2.0/package/scripts/status_params.py#L90-L101
> *Solution*
> Since a kinit call here is unnecessary and the relevant configuration files are being created properly.  Simply removing the kinit call (and related variabled) will fix the kinit failure issue.
> For the hive_conf_dir issue, setting {{hive_conf_dir = hive_server_conf_dir}} in status_params.py, solves the issue.
