-------------------------------------
Summary: Maintain ownership of parent directories of an external
table directory after replication
Key: HIVE-22559
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22559
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Ashutosh Bapat
Assignee: Anishek Agarwal
For replicating an external table we specify a base directory on the target
(say /base_ext for example). The path of an external table directory on the
source (say /xyz/abc/ext_t1) is prefixed with the base directory on the target
(/base_ext in our example) when replicating the external table data. Thus the
path of the external table on the target becomes /base_ext/xyz/abc/ext_t1. In
this path only the ownership permissions of ext_t1 directory is preserved but
the owenship of xyz and abc directories is set to the user executing REPL LOAD.
Instead we should preserve the ownership of xyz and abc as well.
