    Description

      Hiveserver2 needs permission 733 or above on scratch directory to start successfully.
      HS2 does not take into consideration the permission given to scratch dir via Ranger, it expects the permissions at HDFS level.
      Even if we give full access to 'hive' user from Ranger , the start of HS2 fails, it expects to have the permission from HDFS (#hdfs dfs -chmod 755 /tmp/hive)
