> hive.metastore.disallow.incompatible.col.type.changes when set to true, will
> disallow incompatible column type changes through alter table. But, this
> parameter is set system wide, and changing it requires restart of HMS. The
> default value of this parameter is true. User can set the parameter to false
> and change the column type through alter if this can be modified within a
> session.
