Summary: Renaming tables across encryption zones renames table even though the operation throws error Key: HIVE-10630 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10630 Project: Hive Issue Type: Sub-task Components: Security Reporter: Deepesh Khandelwal Create a table with data in an encrypted zone 1 and then rename it to encrypted zone 2. {noformat} hive> alter table encdb1.testtbl rename to encdb2.testtbl; FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask. Unable to alter table. Unable to access old location hdfs://node-1.example.com:8020/apps/hive/warehouse/encdb1.db/testtbl for table encdb1.testtbl {noformat} Even though the command errors out the table is renamed. I think the right behavior should be to not rename the table at all including the metadata. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
