--------------------------------
Summary: Disallow making external tables transactional
Key: HIVE-13175
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13175
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Hive
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: Wei Zheng
Assignee: Wei Zheng
The fact that compactor rewrites contents of ACID tables is in conflict with
what is expected of external tables.
Conversely, end user can write to External table which certainly not what is
expected of ACID table.
So we should explicitly disallow making an external table ACID.
