----------------------------------
Assignee: László Végh
> Compactor threads should gracefully shutdown
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-26903
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26903
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: László Végh
> Assignee: László Végh
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently the compactor threads are daemon threads, which means the JVM will
> not wait for these threads to finish. (see:
> [https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/431e7d9e5431a808106d8db81e11aea74f040da5/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/txn/compactor/CompactorThread.java#L81)]
> As a result during system shutdown, JVM may close all daemon threads
> abruptly (JVM won't wait for a thread to sleep/wait, and no
> InterruptedException is thrown), so the threads don't have any chance to
> shutdown gracefully. This can lead to inconsistent/corrupted state in the
> Metastore or on the File system.
> Make the compactor threads user threads, and handle shutdown accordingly.
> Make sure interrupts and InterruptedException is handled accordingly.
