Alan Gates commented on HCATALOG-261: ------------------------------------- After applying this patch writing to partitioned tables fails. Hadoop_Checkin_5, 6 and Pig_Checkin_6, which passed before, all fail. Also a number of the newly added tests fail, but that looks like because they depend on HCATALOG-264. That issue is marked as depending on this one, but is it the other way around? > Enable more DDL statements for HCat > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HCATALOG-261 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-261 > Project: HCatalog > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Daniel Dai > Assignee: Daniel Dai > Fix For: 0.4 > > Attachments: HCATALOG-261-1.patch, HCATALOG-261-2.patch > > > Currently HCat allow a selected set of DDL statements and delegate them to > Hive. We shall allow more DDL statements. The criteria is the DDL statement > is nonblocking. Locking is not considered since otherwise most DDL operation > will be blocking. Allowed DDL includes: > * database DDL > * view DDL > * index DDL (no actual index building, eg, alter index rebuild is excluded) > * authorization DDL > * lock management DDL > * table management DDL (no create as select) > * table partition management DDL (no CONCATENATE, archive/unarchive) > * table schema management DDL > * Misc: show function, explain, dfs, set > import/export which are supported before is dropped since they are blocking. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
