Carl Steinbach updated HIVE-141: -------------------------------- Fix Version/s: 0.3.0 > drop table partition behaving oddly - does not create subdirectories > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-141 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-141 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Metastore > Reporter: Hao Liu > Assignee: Prasad Chakka > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.3.0 > > Original Estimate: 4h > Remaining Estimate: 4h > > for example, I have a table, which has two partitions: > tmp_table_name/dt=2008-11-01 > tmp_table_name/dt=2008-11-02 > When we use hive metastore to drop the first partition (as root), I expect > the data file will be moved to > user/root/.Trash/081103xxxx/tmp_table_name/dt=2008-11-01 by default. However, > directory tmp_table_name was not created, the data was moved to > user/root/.Trash/081103xxxx/dt=2008-11-01, which makes data recovery a very > difficult task. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
