------------------------------------------
Summary: Exchange Partition with a table that already contains it
Key: HIVE-14763
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14763
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Metastore
Reporter: Konstantinos Kallas
Priority: Minor
The EXCHANGE PARTITION command fails to execute if the partition already exists
in the target table. However this is not the expected result from a command
named *EXCHANGE* partition.
+Proposed Improvement+
Change the command to really exchange the partition between the target and the
source table, meaning that after it the source table should have the
destination table partition and vice versa.
