bharath v created HIVE-6911: ------------------------------- Summary: Refactor HiveAlterHandler as per HIVE-2907 Key: HIVE-6911 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6911 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: bharath v
HIVE-2907 introduced a cap on number of partitions to fetch per getPartitions() call and HiveAlterHandler [1] also needs to be refactored as per the new semantics. Otherwise this issue can lead to OOMs on client that does "ALTER" on tables with huge number of partitions [1] https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/trunk/metastore/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveAlterHandler.java#L180 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
