Minor Description
When using beeline shell to connect to HS2 or impalaD as below -
Connection to HS2 using beeline tool on port 10000 -
beeline -u "jdbc:hive2://HS2-host-name:10000/default;principal=hive/HS2-host-name@DOMAIN.EXAMPLE.COM"
Connection to ImpalaD using beeline tool on port 21050 -
beeline -u "jdbc:hive2://impalad-host-name.com:21050/XXX;principal=impala/impalad-host-name.com@DOMAIN.EXAMPLE.COM"
Providing a invalid database name as XXX - the connection is made.
It should ideally stop the connection to be successfull.
Even though, the beeline tool does not allow to move forward, unless you provide a valid DB name, like
Use <Database-Name>;
