Changing the Hive Warehouse Directory
May 28, 2013 1 Comment
By default the hive warehouse directory is located at the hdfs location /user/hive/warehouse
If you want to change this location, you can add the following property to hive-site.xml.
Everyone using hive should have appropriate read/write permissions to this warehouse directory.
<property> <name>hive.metastore.warehouse.dir</name> <value>/user/hivestore/warehouse </value> <description>location of the warehouse directory</description> </property>
