Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1306:
----------------------------------
I havent tested it yet - will do after checking the unit tests.
scratchDir is the directory from where all file sinks write to.
the, movetask copies to the actual location.
If you look at the task log, there is the default FileOutputCommitter which
cleans the jobScratchDir - I am not sure
what jobScratchDir is used for - it is not used for the final output. Maybe, it
is for the intermediate output or something like
that. Can ask Dhruba/Joy ?

> It is in a finally block, which will not work if the process is killed.
> It should be a shutdown hook - which will take care of these scenarios.
