Description

HIVE-8588 added support for this by copying jdbc jars to lib/ of localized/exploded Sqoop tar. Unfortunately, in a secure cluster, Dist Cache intentionally sets permissions on exploded tars such that they are not writable.

this needs to be fixed, otherwise the users would have to modify their sqoop tar to include the relevant jdbc jars which is burdensome is different DBs are used and may create headache around licensing issues
