Description

The hive log gets locked by the hive process and cannot be rolled in windows OS.
Install Hive in Windows, start hive, try and rename hive log while Hive is running.
Wait for log4j tries to rename it and it will throw the same error as it is locked by the process.

The changes in https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29726 should be integrated to Hive for a reliable rollover.
