Eugene Koifman commented on HIVE-18973: --------------------------------------- ok, I did't see the last comment here so I reviewed the current patch. In general, it looks like whenever there is db/table in a RDBMS table, you added a catalog field. That makes sense. Could you elaborate on the cross catalog locking restriction. How/where would that be enforced. I assume it means a query/transaction cannot use resources from multiple catalogs? I saw a number of places where the code checks if catalog is set and if not uses default one. This seems like it can lead to difficult bugs. I think MetaStoreUtils.getDefaultCatalog(conf) should be used as little as possible (especially in TxnHandler, but probably in other places as well). > Make transaction system work with catalogs > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-18973 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18973 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Metastore > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Alan Gates > Assignee: Alan Gates > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Attachments: HIVE-18973.patch > > > The transaction tables need to understand catalogs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
