Renaming external partition changes location
--------------------------------------------
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
