HiveServer2 hangs when I start it - hive

Question

I am trying to setup HDP 3.1.0 on Oracle Linux 7.
Ambari, HDFS and HIVE Metastore services are already running but HiveServer2 is not starting.
When I try to start it manually:
# hive --service hiveserver2
I get this after several minutes of waiting:

This is what netstat is reporting:
# netstat -ntpl | egrep "10000|10001|10002"
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.100:10001 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 422/java
tcp 0 0 192.168.1.100:10002 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 26918/java
Nobody is listening on port 10000 :(
This is what I have in /hive-site.xml:
<property>
<name>hive.server2.thrift.port</name>
<value>10000</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>hive.server2.thrift.http.port</name>
<value>10001</value>
</property>
<property>
<name>hive.server2.webui.port</name>
<value>10002</value>
</property>
I assume I can ignore SLF4J warnings, correct? What else should I check?

Answer 1

It turned out that that this service was trying to grab more memory than 1024 MB allowed by the default /etc/hadoop/conf/yarn-site.xml setting:
<property>
<name>yarn.nodemanager.resource.memory-mb</name>
<value>1024</value>
</property>
I increased that limit to 1792 and the issue was resolved.
