+It is also necessary to configure 2 additional things in HDFS:
 
 * Define group mappings for users with `hadoop.user.group.static.mapping.overrides`
 * Tell HDFS that Hive is allowed to impersonate other users, i.e. Hive does not need any _direct_ access permissions for itself, but should be able to impersonate Hive users when accessing HDFS. This can be done by e.g. setting `hadoop.proxyuser.hive.users=*` and `hadoop.proxyuser.hive.hosts=*` to allow the user `hive` to impersonate all other users.
 
 An example of the above can be found in this https://github.com/stackabletech/hive-operator/blob/main/tests/templates/kuttl/kerberos-hdfs/30-install-hdfs.yaml.j2[integration test].
