------------------------------------------
Summary: SchemaTool validate locations should not return exit 1
Key: HIVE-17805
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17805
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar
Priority: Minor
{{HiveSchemaTool}} can be used by other applications to validate the metastore
schema. One of the validation check looks at the location URLs of tables/DBs
and returns {{false}} which causes HiveSchemaTool to exit 1 to the calling
script. Invalid locations although are a problem in some instances, cannot be
termed as catastrophic errors in the schema which should cause Hive service
failure/unusable. Ideally we should introduce warning levels and error levels
in schemaTool validations so the caller can take appropriate action.
