Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-2181:
--------------------------------------

Doc note:  This added configuration parameter *hive.start.cleanup.scratchdir* 
to HiveConf.java in release 0.8.1 (not 0.8.0 as indicated in Fix Version).

HIVE-10415 fixed a bug in release 1.3.0.

*hive.start.cleanup.scratchdir* is documented in the wiki here:

* [Configuration Properties -- hive.start.cleanup.scratchdir | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.start.cleanup.scratchdir]
 

>  Clean up the scratch.dir (tmp/hive-root) while restarting Hive server.

> Now queries leaves the map outputs under scratch.dir after execution. If the 
> hive server is stopped we need not keep the stopped server's map oputputs. So 
> whle starting the server we can clear the scratch.dir. This can help in 
> improved disk usage.
