Sharmadha Sainath created ATLAS-2120: ----------------------------------------
Summary: Inconsistency in Importing already existing types on backup cluster with new definition. Key: ATLAS-2120 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-2120 Project: Atlas Issue Type: Bug Components: atlas-core Affects Versions: 0.9-incubating Reporter: Sharmadha Sainath Priority: Critical 1.Created a tag tag1 on cluster1 with attributes : * attrib1 : string * attrib2 : integer 2.Created a tag with same name on cluster2 with attributes: * attrib1: date * attrib3: integer (Note the tag names are same , and attrib1 is same but datatypes of attrib1 are different in both the clusters) 3. On cluster1 , created an entity and associated the tag1 to the entity with attribute values attrib1: "randstr" attrib2: 5 and exported the entity into zip file . 4.Tried to import the entity into cluster2. Import failed with 500 Internal server error and with following exception : {code} {"errorCode":"ATLAS-500-00-001","errorMessage":"org.apache.atlas.exception.AtlasBaseException: org.apache.atlas.repository.graphdb.AtlasSchemaViolationException: com.thinkaurelius.titan.core.SchemaViolationException: Value [rand_str] is not an instance of the expected data type for property key [tag1.attrib1] and cannot be converted. Expected: class java.lang.Long, found: class java.lang.String"} {code} Following is the inconsistency observed : Entity is not imported into the cluster2 , but the type definition of tag1 in cluster2 had 3 attributes now (attrib1 : string , attrib2:Integer , attrib3:Integer) and 500 Internal server error is thrown. Normally, when a datatype of an attribute is attempted to be updated , Atlas throws the following exception and the type is not updated. {code} {"errorCode":"ATLAS-400-00-029","errorMessage":"Data type update for attribute is not supported"} {code} Expected the same to happen while importing (i.e) Import failing with Bad request with the proper error message. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
