Shreepadma Venugopalan commented on HIVE-3443:
----------------------------------------------

@Jakob: This tool has been added to support migration to HA NN for Hive 
customers. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by change to the Sedere 
class since its name changed. Hive Metatool replies on the key "schema.url" to 
update avro schema url records that contain a reference to the NN. Given the 
recent change from schema.url to avro.schema.url, unless Hive Metatool allows 
the user to pass in the serdeParamKey, it can't reliably update all metastore 
records to refer the the right NN. Failing to update some of the metastore 
records will render some tables in the warehouse inaccessible. This is in no 
way a minor bug.
