Testing an External Metastore Configuration

Test the configuration of a local or external metastore for a Big Data Service cluster.

    1. On the Clusters list page, select the cluster that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the cluster, see Listing Clusters in a Compartment.
    2. On the Cluster details page, under Resources, select Metastore configurations.

      The default local metastore is listed. An external metastore is also listed if you have created one.

    3. From the Actions menu Actions Menu for the metastore configuration that you want to test, select Test configuration.
    4. In the Test configuration dialog box, enter the Cluster admin password for the cluster, and then select Test configuration.
    5. Review the connection status and when done, select Close.

    oci bds bds-metastore-configuration test --bds-instance-id <bds_instance_id> --cluster-admin-password <cluster_admin_password> --metastore-config-id <metastore_config_id> [OPTIONS]
