Written by
Updated at October 15, 2025
If the cloud network uses security groups, they can hinder the Apache Hive™ Metastore cluster performance. Set up the default security group to work with Apache Hive™ Metastore. To do this, add the following rules to it:
-
For incoming client traffic:
- Port range:
30000-32767 - Protocol:
Any(Any) - Source:
CIDR - CIDR blocks:
0.0.0.0/0
- Port range:
-
For incoming load balancer traffic:
- Port range:
10256 - Protocol:
Any(Any) - Source:
Load balancer healthchecks
- Port range:
If you plan to use multiple security groups for a cluster, enable all traffic between these groups.
Note
You can specify more granular rules for your security groups, such as only allowing traffic within specific subnets.
