Description

We need to have a test case to cover the following scenario when hive security authorization is enabled:

set hive.exec.reduce.max=1;
Query returned non-zero code: 1, cause: hive configuration hive.exec.reduce.max does not exists.

This is important for ease-of-use and we need to prevent future code change/regression which might convert the above test case to throw a permission denied error.
i.e, the below output is not desirable :

set hive.exec.reduce.max=1;
Error: Error while processing statement: Cannot modify hive.exec.reduce.max at runtime. It is not in list of params that are allowed to be modified at runtime (state=42000,code=1)
