Pengcheng Xiong commented on HIVE-15653:
----------------------------------------
[~ctang.ma], could u double check if the updated output files are legitimate?
For example, columnStatsUpdateForStatsOptimizer_2.q, L175, we only have a
column with name year1 after column renaming, but now
\"COLUMN_STATS\":{\"year\":\"true\"}.
> Some ALTER TABLE commands drop table stats

> Some ALTER TABLE commands drop the table stats. That may make sense for some
> ALTER TABLE operations, but certainly not for others. Personally, I I think
> ALTER TABLE should only change what was requested by the user without any
> side effects that may be unclear to users. In particular, collecting stats
> can be an expensive operation so it's rather inconvenient for users if they
> get wiped accidentally.
> Repro:
> {code}
> create table t (i int);
> insert into t values(1);
> analyze table t compute statistics;
> alter table t set tblproperties('test'='test');
> hive> describe formatted t;
> OK
