 Thanks Rohini,
This is good to know. Could you perhaps raise an issue in the Hive JIRA?
Thanks,
Elliot.

The implementation in hive does look wrong. The concept of VertexGroups was 
added in Tez specifically for the case of union to support writing to same 
directory from different vertices. Sub-directories should not be required as a 
workaround.

Thanks Elliot.  Nice christmas present.   Those settings in that stackoverflow 
link look to me to be exactly what i need to set for MR jobs to pick that data 
up that Tez created.  

Cheers,
Stephen.

I believe that tez will generate subfolders for unioned data. As far as I know, 
this is the expected behaviour and there is no alternative. Presumably this is 
to prevent multiple tasks from attempting to write the same file?
We've experienced issues when switching from mr to tez; downstream jobs weren't 
expecting subfolders and had trouble reading previously accessible datasets.
Apparently there are workarounds within

Merry Christmas,

Are there any exceptions in hive.log?. Is tmp_pv_v4* table part of the select 
query? 
Assuming you are creating the table in staging.db, it would have created the 
table location as staging.db/foo (as you have not specified the location). 
Adding user@hive.apache.org as this is hive related.

all,

i'm running tez with the sql pattern: 

    * create table foo as select * from (select... UNION select... UNION 
select...)

in the logs the final step is this:

    * Moving data to directory 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/tmp_pv_v4c__loc_4
 from 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/.hive-staging_hive_2016-12-24_10-05-40_048_4896412314807355668-899/-ext-10002


when querying the table i got zero rows returned which made me curious. so i 
queried the hdfs location and see this:

  $ hdfs dfs -ls 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/tmp_pv_v4c__loc_4

  Found 3 items
  drwxrwxrwx   - dwr supergroup          0 2016-12-24 10:05 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/tmp_pv_v4c__loc_4/1
  drwxrwxrwx   - dwr supergroup          0 2016-12-24 10:06 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/tmp_pv_v4c__loc_4/2
  drwxrwxrwx   - dwr supergroup          0 2016-12-24 10:06 
hdfs://dwrnn1.sv2.trulia.com:8020/user/hive/warehouse/staging.db/tmp_pv_v4c__loc_4/3

and yes the data files are under these three dirs.

so i ask... i'm not used to seeing sub-directories under the tablename unless 
the table is partitioned. is this legit? might there be some config settings i 
need to set to see this data via sql? 

thanks,
Stephen.
