Github user gatorsmile commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/22614 Based on my understanding, the solution of FB team is to retry the following commands multiple times: ``` getPartitionsByFilterMethod.invoke(hive, table, filter).asInstanceOf[JArrayList[Partition]] ``` This really depends on what is the actual errors that fail `getPartitionsByFilterMethod`. When there are many concurrent users share the same metastore, `exponential backoff with retries` is very reasonable since most of errors might be caused by timeout or similar reasons. If it still fails, I would suggest to fail fast or depends on the conf value of `spark.sql.hive.metastorePartitionPruning.fallback.enabled`
