Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-17832:
-----------------------------------------
I think this is by design that it cannot be changed. This is a correctness
setting that should only be settable by administrator.
> Allow hive.metastore.disallow.incompatible.col.type.changes to be changed in
> metastore
