Deepanker edited comment on SPARK-20236 at 9/19/18 3:03 PM: ------------------------------------------------------------ Hi Wenchen Fan, Tested this even further and found out that it works for managed tables as well. But not for tables created via saveAsTable API of spark which is a bit surprising because saveAsTable also creates a managed table only. As a test i did the following: saveAsTable(x) [Stored as ORC ] [Partitioned by arbitrary column] [Doesn't work for this] Create Table like x [Using Beeline CLI] [Same properties as above table] [Works for this] Create external Table like x [Using Beeline CLI] [Same properties as above table] [Works for this] Is this the expected behaviour? I am using Spark 2.2 and Hive 1.1 If/When find time can you also confirm my hypothesis for the difference between two Jira in my previous post? was (Author: deepanker): Hi Wenchen Fan, Tested this even further and found out that it works for managed tables as well.
