Karen Coppage created HIVE-24586: ------------------------------------ Summary: Rename compaction "attempted" status Key: HIVE-24586 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24586 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Karen Coppage Assignee: Karen Coppage
A compaction with "attempted" status sounds like compactor tried to compact the table/partition and failed. In reality it means one of these: * the Initiator did not queue compaction because the number of previously failed compactions has passed a threshold * the Initiator did not queue compaction because of an error In both these cases the user is still able initiate compaction manually. This should be made clearer. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
