"Command aborted because of exception: Command timed-out after 150 seconds"There is already a JIRA to get this limit removed, however, it won’t happen until Cloudera Manager 5.5. To solve this problem, we can manually run the Hive metatool from the command line, follow the steps below: 1) Test the metatool to verify that it is working from command line on the Hive gateway host:
hive --service metatool -listFSRoot2) Run Hive Metatool to update the nameservice:
hive --service metatool -updateLocation hdfs://nameservice1 hdfs://oldnamenode.com -tablePropKey avro.schema.urlIf you getting errors like SQL driver not found or not able to connect to HMS database, please add the following steps and try above again on the HMS host: 3) Locate the HMS run time configuration directory on the HMS host, /var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/
export HIVE_CONF_DIR=/var/run/cloudera-scm-agent/process/521-hive-HIVEMETASTORE4) Determine which DB type you are using, MySQL, PostgeSQL or Orcale, in my below example I used PostgeSQL
export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=/opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH/jars/postgresql-9.1-901.jdbc4.jarThen just wait for the command to finish and then restart Hive Services. So long as there is no other errors, you are good to go.
