Sounds good. Yeah, not planning to look at this immediately, so assigned to
you. Thanks for picking it up.
> Add ability to run schematool against HMS in minicluster
> --------------------------------------------------------

> Key: IMPALA-9843
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9843
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Sahil Takiar
> Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar
> Priority: Major
>
> When the CDP version is bumped, we often need to re-format the HMS postgres
> database because the HMS schema needs updating. Hive provides a standalone
> tool for performing schema updates:
> [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Hive+Schema+Tool]
> Impala should be able to integrate with this tool, so that developers don't
> have to blow away their HMS database every time the CDP version is bumped up.
> Even worse, blowing away the HMS data requires performing a full data load.
> It would be great to have a wrapper around the schematool that can easily be
> invoked by developers.
