Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-21036: --------------------------------------- FYI, [~ikryvenko] > extend OpenTxnRequest with transaction type > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-21036 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21036 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Transactions > Affects Versions: 4.0.0 > Reporter: Eugene Koifman > Priority: Major > > There is a {{TXN_TYPE}} field in {{TXNS}} table. > There is {{TxnHandler.TxnType}} with legal values. It would be useful to > TxnType a {{Thrift}}, add a new {{COMPACTION}} type object and allow setting > it in {{OpenTxnRequest}}. > Since HIVE-20823 compactor starts a txn and should set this. > Down the road we may want to set READ_ONLY either based on parsing of the > query or user input which can make {{TxnHandler.commitTxn}} faster. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
