+### Altering Schema for a Table
+Table schema may be updated using the `ALTER SCHEMA` commands.
+
+The syntax for the command to add (or replace) columns / properties is the 
following:
+
+    ALTER SCHEMA
+    (FOR TABLE dfs.tmp.nation | PATH '/tmp/schema.json')
+    ADD [OR REPLACE]
+    [COLUMNS (col1 int, col2 varchar)]
+    [PROPERTIES ('prop1'='val1', 'prop2'='val2')]
+
+Add command will fail if column or property with the same name exists, unless 
`OR REPLACE` keywords are indicated.
