Ryan Harris resolved HIVE-3456.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> No apparent way to change table-level COMMENT data
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-3456
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3456
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation, Metastore
> Affects Versions: 0.7.0, 0.7.1, 0.8.0, 0.8.1, 0.9.0
> Reporter: Ryan Harris
> Priority: Minor
>
> Not sure if this is a documentation issue, or a feature that is lacking from
> ALTER TABLE...
> Setting a COMMENT on a table during initial creation is straightforward.
> Changing column names and column comments is also straightforward using ALTER
> TABLE CHANGE...
> However, I have found no way, other than manually editing the metadata to
> set/change the table-level comment for a table after it has been created.
