Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1443: ---------------------------------- +1 will commit if the tests pass > Add support to turn off bucketing with ALTER TABLE > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1443 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1443 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Paul Yang > Assignee: Paul Yang > Fix For: 0.7.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-1443.1.patch > > > Currently, there is an alter table command that can change the bucketing / > sort columns, as well as the number of buckets (ALTER TABLE table_name > CLUSTERED BY (col_name, col_name, ...) [SORTED BY (col_name, ...)] INTO > num_buckets BUCKETS). However, this command does not provide a means to > disable bucketing. This proposes to introduce a syntax like > ALTER TABLE src NOT CLUSTERED; > that would turn off bucketing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
