Joe McDonnell resolved IMPALA-1173.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Dataload has gotten much faster, and it is rare to use snapshots to load data
on a personal machine. If we decide to address deficiencies there, we'll open a
new JIRA.
> create-load-data.sh shouldn't try to do load-data.py --force when loading
> from a snapshot

> Key: IMPALA-1173
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-1173
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Infrastructure
> Affects Versions: Impala 2.0
> Reporter: Daniel Hecht
> Assignee: Joe McDonnell
> Priority: Minor
>
> testdata/bin/create-load-data.sh first loads a snapshot. Afterwards, it
> checks to make sure the loaded schema matches that in git. If it doesn't
> match, it forces a reload through load-data.py.
> If the user supplied a snapshot file, then I think it would be better to fail
> when the schema mismatch is detected rather than falling back to the
> load_data.py --force path. It seems more likely that the user would prefer
> to download an updated snapshot to resolve the situation.
> This has burned me a couple of times now when I've downloaded snapshots in
> the window between the schema update and when the new snapshot is ready.
> Surprising (to me at least), the scripts went down the load_data.py --force
> path, which led to another problem (which Lenni as since fixed). But it would
> have been better if the script just told me that my snapshot is out of date
> to begin with.
