+While creating the cluster, HDInsight service needs to connect to the external metastore and verify your credentials. Configure Azure SQL Database firewall rules to allow Azure services and resources to access the server. Enable this option in the Azure portal by selecting **Set server firewall**. Then select **No** underneath **Deny public network access**, and **Yes** underneath **Allow Azure services and resources to access this server** for the Azure SQL Database server or database. For more information, see [Create and manage IP firewall rules](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/sql-database/sql-database-firewall-configure#use-the-azure-portal-to-manage-server-level-ip-firewall-rules)
