David Lavati commented on HIVE-23490:
-------------------------------------
Based on HIVE-19981 this can probably be achieved with {{REPL LOAD db FROM dir
WITH ('HIVE_EXTERNALTABLE_PURGE_DEFAULT'='true')}}
Will post my findings here.

> When replicating data from e.g. an onprem HDFS cluster to cloud storage, a
> common scenario is to load it as external table. However proper cleanup is
> usually missing here, so when the user deletes a table on the source side,
> it's ideal to purge it on the target side.
