Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-7100: -------------------------------------- Did you follow these instructions? https://www.reviewboard.org/docs/manual/2.0/users/review-requests/creating/ > Users of hive should be able to specify skipTrash when dropping tables. > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7100 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7100 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.13.0 > Reporter: Ravi Prakash > Assignee: Jayesh > Attachments: HIVE-7100.1.patch, HIVE-7100.2.patch, HIVE-7100.3.patch, > HIVE-7100.4.patch, HIVE-7100.patch > > > Users of our clusters are often running up against their quota limits because > of Hive tables. When they drop tables, they have to then manually delete the > files from HDFS using skipTrash. This is cumbersome and unnecessary. We > should enable users to skipTrash directly when dropping tables. > We should also be able to provide this functionality without polluting SQL > syntax. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
