--------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-2874
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2874
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Kevin Wilfong


Renaming an external partition will change the location of that partition to 
the default location of a managed partition with the same name.

E.g. If ex_table is external and has partition part=1 with location 
/.../managed_table/part=1

Calling ALTER TABLE ex_table PARTITION (part = '1') RENAME TO PARTITION (part = 
'2');

Will change the location of the partition to /.../ex_table/part=2
