Brock Noland commented on HIVE-5700: ------------------------------------ [~sershe] - in my setup, I have a pre-upgrade table with date partitions in the form of {{20141218}}. Sure enough after upgrading {{PARTITION.PART_NAME}} is not updated and as such I cannot do operations like modify the partitions location. If I manually fix {{PARTITION.PART_NAME}} I am able to use the partition. Furthermore we get even more interesting results on postgres. I am setting up an environment to reproduce this and will share additional details tomorrow. > enforce single date format for partition column storage > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-5700 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5700 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin > Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin > Fix For: 0.13.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-5700.01.patch, HIVE-5700.02.patch, HIVE-5700.patch > > > "inspired" by HIVE-5286. > Partition column for dates should be stored as either integer, or as fixed > representation e.g. yyyy-mm-dd.
