Naveen Gangam commented on HIVE-15074:
--------------------------------------

Functionally, it looks good to me. 

Just for semantics to make it consistent with other verify* calls, do we want 
to make it return a boolean to indicate success/failure instead of throwing an 
exception? maybe overload {{verifySchemaVersion()}} that catches the exception 
and returns a boolean? I will defer to [~aihuaxu] for the final call on this.

> For some unknown reason, we see customer's HMS can not start because there 
> are multiple entries in their HMS VERSION table. Schematool should provide a 
> way to validate the HMS db and provide warning and fix options for this kind 
> of issues.
