+---+Hive Disaster Recovery
+
+
+---++Overview
+Falcon provides feature to replicate Hive metadata and data events from source cluster
+to destination cluster. This is supported for secure and unsecure cluster through Falcon Recipes.
+
+
+---++Prerequisites
+Following is the prerequisites to use Hive DR
+
+   * *Hive 1.2.0+*
+   * *Oozie 4.2.0+*
+
+*Note:* Set following properties in hive-site.xml for replicating the Hive events on source and destination Hive cluster:
+<verbatim>
+    <property>
+        <name>hive.metastore.event.listeners</name>
+        <value>org.apache.hive.hcatalog.listener.DbNotificationListener</value>
+        <description>event listeners that are notified of any metastore changes</description>
+    </property>
+
+    <property>
+        <name>hive.metastore.dml.events</name>
+        <value>true</value>
+    </property>
+</verbatim>
+
+---++ Usage
+---+++ Bootstrap
+   Perform initial bootstrap of Table and Database from source cluster to destination cluster
+   * *Database Bootstrap*
+     For bootstrapping DB replication, first destination DB should be created. This step is expected,
+     since DB replication definitions can be set up by users only on pre-existing DB’s. Second, Export all tables in
+     the source db and Import it in the destination db, as described in Table bootstrap.
+
+   * *Table Bootstrap*
+     For bootstrapping table replication, essentially after having turned on the !DbNotificationListener
+     on the source db, perform an Export of the table, distcp the Export over to the destination
+     warehouse and do an Import over there. Check the following [[https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+ImportExport][Hive Export-Import]] for syntax details
+     and examples.
+     This will set up the destination table so that the events on the source cluster that modify the table
+     will then be replicated.
+
+---+++ Setup cluster definition
+   <verbatim>
+    $FALCON_HOME/bin/falcon entity -submit -type cluster -file /cluster/definition.xml
+   </verbatim>
+
+---+++ Update recipes properties
+   Update recipe properties file in addons/recipes/hive-disaster-recovery with required attributes for replicating
+   Hive data and metadata from source cluster to destination cluster.
+
+---+++ Submit Hive DR recipe
+   <verbatim>
+    $FALCON_HOME/bin/falcon recipe -name hive-disaster-recovery -operation HIVE_DISASTER_RECOVERY
+   </verbatim>
+
+
+Recipe templates for Hive DR is available in addons/recipes/hive-disaster-recovery and copy it to
+recipe path (*falcon.recipe.path=<recipe directory path>*) by specifying in client.properties.
+
+*Note:* If kerberos security is enabled on cluster, use the secure templates for Hive DR from
+        addons/recipes/hive-disaster-recovery
