-----------------------------------
Summary: Renaming table changes table location scheme/authority
Key: HIVE-3702
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3702
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Metastore
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Reporter: Kevin Wilfong
Assignee: Kevin Wilfong
Renaming a table changes the location of the table to the default location of
the database, followed by the table name. This means that if the default
location of the database uses a different scheme/authority, an exception will
get thrown attempting to move the data.
Instead, the table's location should be made the default location of the
database followed by the table name, but using the original location's scheme
and authority.
This only applies for managed tables, and there is already a check to ensure
the new location doesn't already exist.
This is analogous to what was done for partitions in HIVE-2875
