At times you’ll need to be aware of all the jars that are available in Hive Classpath. The Query to get a list of all jars that are included in the ClassPath of Hive, run the following Query:
hive> list jars;
This will list all the jars, the ones that are added explicitly by you, and the ones that are available by default.
The output will look like:
/usr/local/…..*.jar
/usr/local/…..*.jar
file:/usr/local/…..*.jar
/usr/local/…..*.jar
The jar location with file: prefix is the one which was available in the ClassPath by default. The others were added explicitly by users using the “add jar <absolute / relative class path>“
