Description

Need to create Ranger Hive service in Cluster1 having Hive Metastore + Ranger Service. The Ranger Hive service created in Cluster1 will be used by Cluster2 having Ranger Hive Plugin enabled under Hive Server2.

Solution:
Need service creation logic using Ranger REST API. The REST API code is already available for use.

If ranger.service.config.param.enable.hive.metastore.lookup property present in ranger-hive-plugin-properties with value true and Ranger configurations are present in the cluster(Ranger installed in same cluster) then only create Ranger Hive service.

For installation via blueprint, two extra custom config parameters ranger.service.config.param.enable.hive.metastore.lookup with value true and ranger.service.config.param.hive.site.file.path with value /etc/hive/conf/hive-site.xml are required to be provided in blueprint under ranger-hive-plugin-properties config type.

For installation via UI, need to add properties in custom section of ranger-hive-plugin-properties under Hive Service config tab.
