Metastore operations should do a 'rollback' for HDFS failures
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1943
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1943
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Devaraj Das
Fix For: 0.7.0
Currently, metastore operations with associated hdfs operations like
drop_partition doesn't do a rollback if the hdfs operation fails. The metastore
first updates the metadata, and then tries to do hdfs operation. If the hdfs
operation fails for any reason, the data on the hdfs will be orphaned. We
should improve the situation.
