---------------------------------------
Summary: Clean-up of event files created by HiveProtoLoggingHook.
Key: HIVE-20025
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20025
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HiveServer2
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Sankar Hariappan
Assignee: Sankar Hariappan
Fix For: 4.0.0
Currently, HiveProtoLoggingHook write event data to hdfs. The number of files
can grow to very large numbers.
Since the files are created under a folder with Date being a part of the path,
hive should have a way to clean up data older than a certain configured time /
date. This can be a job that can run with as little frequency as just once a
day.
This time should be set to 1 week default. There should also be a sane upper
bound of # of files so that when a large cluster generates a lot of files
during a spike, we don't force the cluster fall over.
