Namit Jain updated HIVE-2875:
-----------------------------
Status: Open (was: Patch Available)
> Renaming partition changes partition location prefix
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-2875
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2875
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Kevin Wilfong
> Assignee: Kevin Wilfong
> Attachments: HIVE-2875.D2349.1.patch
>
>
> Renaming a partition changes the location of the partition to the default
> location of the table, followed by the partition specification. It should
> just change the partition specification of the path.
> If the path does not end with the old partition specification, we should
> probably throw an exception because renaming a partition should not change
> the path so dramatically, and not changing the path to reflect the new
> partition name could leave the partition in a very confusing state.
