Thanks Andrew > Add 'IGNORE PROTECTION' predicate for dropping partitions > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-3646 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3646 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: CLI > Reporter: Andrew Chalfant > Assignee: Andrew Chalfant > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.11 > > Attachments: HIVE-3646.1.patch.txt, HIVE-3646.2.patch.txt, > HIVE-3646.3.patch.txt > > Original Estimate: 1m > Remaining Estimate: 1m > > There are cases where it is desirable to move partitions between clusters. > Having to undo protection and then re-protect tables in order to delete > partitions from a source are multi-step and can leave us in a failed open > state where partition and table metadata is dirty. By implementing an 'rm > -rf'-like functionality, we can perform these operations atomically. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
