Adam Holley reassigned IMPALA-6385: ----------------------------------- Assignee: (was: Adam Holley) > Inconsistencies in alter table implementations > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: IMPALA-6385 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6385 > Project: IMPALA > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Frontend > Reporter: Adam Holley > Priority: Minor > > In CatalogOpExecutor, several of the alter statements have inconsistent > behavior. For example, if passing partition parameters, after some alter > statements, the metadata for the partition is just marked dirty and will be > reloaded on the next read. If not using partition parameters, the table > metadata and default partition metadata is reloaded. Specifically, in > alterTableSetFileFormat, if the partitionSet is null, the method will return > true which results in HdfsTable.load being called with > loadPartitionFileMetadata true which reloads the metadata. However if the > partitionSet is not null, the metadata is not reloaded and instead the > partition is instead just marked dirty > (catalog_.getHdfsPartition(...).markDirty()). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-all-unsubscr...@impala.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-all-h...@impala.apache.org
