Zheng Shao commented on HIVE-592: --------------------------------- Tried renaming table on both branch-0.4 and branch-0.5. Both worked as expected (locations are modified). > renaming internal table should rename HDFS and also change path of the table > and partitions accordingly. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-592 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-592 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.3.0, 0.3.1, 0.4.0, 0.6.0 > Reporter: Prasad Chakka > Assignee: Prasad Chakka > Fix For: 0.4.0 > > Attachments: hive-592.2.patch, hive-592.3.patch > > > rename table changes just the name of the table in metastore but not hdfs. so > if a table with old name is created, it uses the hdfs directory pointing to > the renamed table. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
