The "Hive/PartitionedViews" page has been changed by JohnSichi. http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hive/PartitionedViews?action=diff&rev1=3&rev2=4 -------------------------------------------------- * The ALTER VIEW ADD/DROP partition syntax is identical to ALTER TABLE, except that it is illegal to specify a LOCATION clause. * Other ALTER TABLE commands which operate on partitions (e.g. TOUCH/ARCHIVE) are not supported. (But maybe we need to support TOUCH?) + = Metastore = + + When storing view partition descriptors in the metastore, Hive omits the storage descriptor entirely. This is because there is no data associated with the view partition, so there is no need to keep track of partition-level column descriptors for table schema evolution. +
