Thanks a lot Peter for the review. That's a good point. :) No, with external tables, the data won't be deleted. Added an additional test case where deleteData = purge = true with an external table and the test checks if the partitions is dropped but the location is not deleted. - Marta ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
