> Since the addition of foreign key constraint between Database ('DBS') table
> and catalogs ('CTLGS') table in HIVE-18755 we are able to run a simple create
> database command with an older version of Metastore Server. This is due to
> older versions having JDO schema as per older schema of 'DBS' which did not
> have an additional 'CTLG_NAME' column.
> The error is as follows:
> {code:java}
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException:
> MetaException(message:Exception thrown flushing changes to datastore)
> ....
> java.sql.BatchUpdateException: Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign
> key constraint fails ("metastore_1238"."DBS", CONSTRAINT "CTLG_FK1" FOREIGN
> KEY ("CTLG_NAME") REFERENCES "CTLGS" ("NAME"))
> {code}
