Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-4611: ---------------------------------------- [~vikram.dixit] Can you create phabricator or RB entry for this? > SMB joins fail based on bigtable selection policy. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4611 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4611 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Affects Versions: 0.11.0 > Reporter: Vikram Dixit K > Assignee: Vikram Dixit K > Fix For: 0.11.1 > > Attachments: HIVE-4611.2.patch, HIVE-4611.3.patch, HIVE-4611.4.patch, > HIVE-4611.patch > > > The default setting for > hive.auto.convert.sortmerge.join.bigtable.selection.policy will choose the > big table as the one with largest average partition size. However, this can > result in a query failing because this policy conflicts with the big table > candidates chosen for outer joins. This policy should just be a tie breaker > and not have the ultimate say in the choice of tables. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
