---------------------------------
Summary: Partition columns should be allowed in primary keys
Key: HIVE-15412
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-15412
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Metastore
Affects Versions: 2.1.1
Reporter: Alan Gates
If a primary key includes a partition column the attempt to create the primary
key returns an error saying that the partition column cannot be found. It
appears that the logic in the ObjectStore is checking against the list of valid
columns in the storage descriptor, which doesn't include the partition columns.
Yet it is perfectly reasonable for a user to want to include a partition
column in a primary key. And we want to encourage this behavior because it
will make query optimization easier.
