To avoid this manual step, > external tables can be specified a table property based on which a background > metastore thread can sync partitions periodically. Tables can also be > specified with partition retention period. Any partition whose age exceeds > the retention period will be dropped automatically. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
