Hi HW
I had find a solution to resolve for the Hive metastore database issue.
Because the HDP installation guide does mention that the metastore database need to setup manually.
For the HDP 2.1 for windows, the installer can setup the metastore database automatically. I did not need do anything.
For the MSSQL, the HDP 2.2 for windows is workable.
But for the default derby database, the HDP missing the derby client necessary jar file is not acceptable.
