Prasad Mujumdar commented on HIVE-5181:
---------------------------------------
I was trying to be more cautious :) but, yes the change can be limited to
commit and rollback only.
> RetryingRawStore should not retry on logical failures (e.g. from commit)

>
> RetryingRawStore retries calls. Some method (e.g. drop_table_core in
> HiveMetaStore) explicitly call openTransaction and commitTransaction on
> RawStore.
> When the commit call fails due to some real issue, it is retried, and instead
> of a real cause for failure one gets some bogus exception about transaction
> open count.
> I doesn't make sense to retry logical errors, especially not from
> commitTransaction.
