Alan Gates commented on HIVE-11707:
-----------------------------------
Is your goal to build something that will save the state to disk somewhere or
just to transfer the contents? In HBaseImport (see hbase-metastore branch)
we've built something that can move data from one metastore instance to
another. This implementation is HBase specific but that would be easy to
change. It never stores anything on disk though.
> Implement "dump metastore"

> Key: HIVE-11707
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11707
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Metastore
> Reporter: Navis
> Assignee: Navis
> Priority: Minor
>
> In projects, we've frequently met the need of copying existing metastore to
> other database (for other version of hive or other engines like impala, tajo,
> spark, etc.). RDBs support dumping data of metastore into series of SQLs but
> it's needed to be translated before apply if we uses different RDB which is
> time counsuming, error-prone work.
