Zsolt Fekete created HIVE-16719: ----------------------------------- Summary: HiveMetaTool fails when the data does not fit in memory Key: HIVE-16719 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-16719 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Metastore Reporter: Zsolt Fekete Assignee: Zsolt Fekete
Currently HiveMetaTool reads full tables (as DataNucleus entities) into memory by calling PersistenceManager's retrieveAll(). See these methods of ObjectStore: updateMDatabaseURI, updateTblPropURI, updateMStorageDescriptorTblPropURI, updateMStorageDescriptorTblURI, updateSerdeURI. This might cause failure when the affected tables (SDS, DBS, TABLE_PARAMS, SD_PARAMS, SERDES, SERDE_PARAMS) are too big. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
