I'm using Hive 1.2.1 transactional table. Inserting data in it via Hive Streaming API. After some time i expect compaction to start but it didn't happen:
Here's part of log, which shows that compactor initiator thread doesn't see any delta files: *2016-07-26 18:06:52,459 INFO [Thread-8]: compactor.Initiator (Initiator.java:run(89)) - Checking to see if we should compact default.data_aaa.dt=20160726* *2016-07-26 18:06:52,496 DEBUG [Thread-8]: io.AcidUtils (AcidUtils.java:getAcidState(432)) - in directory hdfs://sorm-master01.msk.mts.ru:8020/apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726 base = null deltas = 0* *2016-07-26 18:06:52,496 DEBUG [Thread-8]: compactor.Initiator (Initiator.java:determineCompactionType(271)) - delta size: 0 base size: 0 threshold: 0.1 will major compact: false* But in that directory there's actually 23 files: hadoop fs -ls /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726 Found 23 items -rw-r--r-- 3 storm hdfs 4 2016-07-26 17:20 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/_orc_acid_version drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:22 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71741256_71741355 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:23 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71762456_71762555 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:25 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71787756_71787855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:26 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71795756_71795855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:27 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71804656_71804755 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:29 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71828856_71828955 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:30 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71846656_71846755 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:32 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71850756_71850855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:33 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71867356_71867455 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:34 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71891556_71891655 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:36 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71904856_71904955 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:37 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71907256_71907355 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:39 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71918756_71918855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:40 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71947556_71947655 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:41 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71960656_71960755 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:43 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71963156_71963255 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:44 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71964556_71964655 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:46 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_71987156_71987255 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:47 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_72015756_72015855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:48 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_72021356_72021455 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:50 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_72048756_72048855 drwxrwxrwx - storm hdfs 0 2016-07-26 17:50 /apps/hive/warehouse/data_aaa/dt=20160726/delta_72070856_72070955 Full log here <http://pastebin.com/gHwvgRUV>.
