Shankar Gorkhe created HIVE-24046: ------------------------------------- Summary: Table properties external table purge Key: HIVE-24046 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24046 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: distribution Reporter: Shankar Gorkhe
External table with table properties TBLPROPERTIES ("external.table.purge"="true") moves data to .Trash while performing insert overwrite on that external table. When large data/partitions are overwritten this fills up .Trash and affects the other functionality. When we do insert overwrite, it should be obvious to completely purge the data instead of moving into .Trash with out without TBLPROPERTIES ("external.table.purge"="true"). -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
