Alan Gates created HIVE-6734: -------------------------------- Summary: DDL locking too course grained in new db txn manager Key: HIVE-6734 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6734 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Locking Affects Versions: 0.13.0 Reporter: Alan Gates Assignee: Alan Gates Fix For: 0.13.0
All DDL operations currently acquire an exclusive lock. This is too course grained, as some operations like alter table add partition shouldn't get an exclusive lock on the entire table. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
