             Summary: Rename compaction "attempted" status
                 Key: HIVE-24586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24586
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Karen Coppage
            Assignee: Karen Coppage


A compaction with "attempted" status sounds like compactor tried to compact the 
table/partition and failed. In reality it means one of these:
 * the Initiator did not queue compaction because the number of previously 
failed compactions has passed a threshold
 * the Initiator did not queue compaction because of an error

In both these cases the user is still able initiate compaction manually. This 
should be made clearer.
