> "The directory you want to use for the default database in your installation"
> After having played with the setting a bit, here is how it seems to work
> (should be documented):
> The directory can be URI or absolute file path. If it is absolute file path,
> it will be resolved to a URI by the metastore:
> If default hdfs was specified in core-site.xml, path resolves to HDFS
> location.
> Otherwise, path is resolved as local file: URI.
> This setting becomes effective when creating new tables (takes precedence
> over default DBS.DB_LOCATION_URI at time of table creation).
