             Summary: DDLTask.handleRemoveMm() assumes locks not present
                 Key: HIVE-17650
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17650
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Transactions
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman


This moves every file in the table from under delta_x_x/ to root of the 
table/partition
How would this work for bucketed tables?  Will it create bucket_x_copy_N files?
This could create 1000s of copy_N files - this will likely break something

The comments in the method assume locks are present - this would imply that 
there are appropriate Read/WriteEntity objects already created - I doubt this 
is the case for a table property change.

It seems like this kind of op should require an Exclusive lock at table level 
to prevent concurrent inserts (into new delta_x_x/)
