Alan Gates commented on HIVE-21034:
-----------------------------------
Creating a single command that will destroy all a user's data is very
dangerous. What's the use case?
> Add option to schematool to drop Hive databases

> Key: HIVE-21034

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Daniel Voros
> Assignee: Daniel Voros
> Priority: Major

> An option to remove all Hive managed data could be a useful addition to
> {{schematool}}.
> I propose to introduce a new flag {{-dropAllDatabases}} that would *drop all
> databases with CASCADE* to remove all data of managed tables.
