Description

Currently, I'm trying to test HiveHBaseIntegration on HiveServer. But it doesn't seem to accept -hiveconf command.

hive --service hiveserver -hiveconf hbase.zookeeper.quorum=hdp0,hdp1,hdp2
Starting Hive Thrift Server
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "-hiveconf"

Therefore, you need to throw the query like "set hbase.zookeeper.quorum=hdp0,hdp1,hdp2" everytime. It's not convenient for separating the configuration between server-side and client-side.
