Patch Set 9: (1 comment) http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/6261/9//COMMIT_MSG Commit Message: Line 10: creating a new managed table, and importing an existing unmanaged "Managed" is a synonym for "internal", and the opposite of "external". So, I don't understand what you mean by "creating a new managed table" when it comes to "create external table". The semantics for external tables is that DROP TABLE won't delete the backing data. That should be true for all external tables, whether Impala had to create the table or the table was pre-existing. So, what do you mean exactly by "managed" here? -- To view, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/6261 To unsubscribe, visit http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/settings Gerrit-MessageType: comment Gerrit-Change-Id: I9aa82809a6c0c5e6386827314b7e5b520c1a6633 Gerrit-PatchSet: 9 Gerrit-Project: Impala-ASF Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Zach Amsden <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Dan Hecht <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Dimitris Tsirogiannis <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Marcel Kornacker <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Matthew Jacobs <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Thomas Tauber-Marshall <[email protected]> Gerrit-Reviewer: Zach Amsden <[email protected]> Gerrit-HasComments: Yes
