Thomas Graves commented on SPARK-23304: --------------------------------------- ok so I guess by that logic then the coalesce won't every work with the COUNT(DISTINCT()) since its the intermediate query I want it to apply to, it will work on the select bcookie. I tested that and verified. spark.sql("SELECT something FROM sometable WHERE dt >= '20170301' AND dt <= '20170331' AND something IS NOT NULL").coalesce(80000).show() Actually works then. So I guess we can close this it was my misunderstanding. > Spark SQL coalesce() against hive not working > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-23304 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-23304 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 2.2.1, 2.3.0 > Reporter: Thomas Graves > Assignee: Xiao Li > Priority: Major > Attachments: spark22_oldorc_explain.txt, spark23_oldorc_explain.txt, > spark23_oldorc_explain_convermetastoreorcfalse.txt > > > The query below seems to ignore the coalesce.
