Alan Gates updated HIVE-8966:
-----------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-8966.6.patch
Final version of the patch. Moved ValidCompactorTxnList per Owen's request.
Also made small changes to StreamingIntegrationTester to make it work properly
in cases where you want it to go slowly.

> hive hcatalog streaming will also create a file like bucket_n_flush_length in
> each delta directory. Where "n" is the bucket number. But the
> compactor.CompactorMR think this file also needs to compact. However this
> file of course cannot be compacted, so compactor.CompactorMR will not
> continue to do the compaction.
> Did a test, after removed the bucket_n_flush_length file, then the "alter
> table partition compact" finished successfully. If don't delete that file,
> nothing will be compacted.
> This is probably a very severity bug. Both 0.13 and 0.14 have this issue
