Description

It's possible in BeeLine to specify set command overides of hadoop config variables, but I haven't seen any example code of how to do this in JDBC with HiveServer2.

We need an ability to specify hadoop conf overrides on a per session basis or even half way through the session. See this Hive ticket for some background:
