Description

When Kerberos is enabled, Hive components show alerts due to the following error:

WARNING 2015-03-16 06:01:08,253 base_alert.py:140 - [Alert][hive_metastore_process] Unable to execute alert. Execution of '/usr/bin/kinit -kt /etc/security/keytabs/smokeuser.headless.keytab ambari-qa; ' returned 1. kinit: Keytab contains no suitable keys for ambari-qa@REALM while getting initial credentials

This occurs because the alert logic for Hive uses cluster-env/smokeuser rather than cluster-env/smokeuser_principal_name to get the principal name for the smoke test identity.
