Description

For Ambari 1.5.1 SQL standard authorization was on by default.

Users with certification suites are running into problems related to this feature (which were not bugs in the auth systems, rather they were additional requirements to using it). This needs to be turned off by default.

The feature is controlled by:
hive.security.authorization.enabled

We want the default value to be set to false in Ambari 1.6.0.
