-----------------------------------------
Is there any update on this?
> Alter table should accept database name
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-2584
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2584
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.7.1
> Reporter: Bharath Mundlapudi
>
> It would be nice if alter table accepts database name.
> For example:
> This would be more useful in certain usecases:
>
> alter table DB.Tbl set location <location>;
> rather than 2 statements.
> use DB;
> alter table Tbl set location <location>;
>
