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

             Summary: Table level stats for external tables are set incorrectly
                 Key: HIVE-6727
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6727
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Harish Butani


if you do the following:
{code}
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE anaylyze_external (a INT) LOCATION 'data/files/ext_test';
describe formatted anaylyze_external;
{code}
The table level stats are:
{noformat}
Table Parameters:
        COLUMN_STATS_ACCURATE   true
        EXTERNAL                TRUE
        numFiles                0
        numRows                 6
        rawDataSize             6
        totalSize               0
{noformat}
numFiles and totalSize is always 0.
Issue is:
MetaStoreUtils:updateUnpartitionedTableStatsFast attempts to set table level 
stats from FileStatus. But it doesn't account for External tables, it always 
calls Warehouse.getFileStatusesForUnpartitionedTable
