Hive table already exists. However, we don't want to write directly into its warehouse location because it may result in a data race. Instead we output to a temp (partitioned) location. Then, we (atomically) move the data into hive's warehouse. Hive's load command already implements the last step. > For your second question: > grunt> sh echo foo > foo > Feel like an idiot; the answer should have been RTFM. :)
