Shawn Weeks updated HIVE-16883:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently the HBaseStorageHandler is lower casing the HBase Table name. This 
prevent use of the storage handler with existing HBase tables that are not all 
lower case. Looking at the source this was done intentionally but I haven't 
found any documentation about why on the wiki. To prevent a change in the 
default behavior I'd suggest adding an additional property to the serde. 

{code}
create 'TestTable', 'd'

create external table `TestTable` (
    id bigint,
    hash String,
    location String,
    name String
    )
    stored by "org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler"
    with serdeproperties (
        "hbase.columns.mapping" = ":key,d:hash,d:location,d:name",
        "hbase.table.name" = "TestTable"
        );
{code}
