Navis updated HIVE-6133: ------------------------ Description: Current alter exchange coerces source and destination table to have same partition columns. But source table has sub-set of partitions and provided partition spec supplements to be a complete partition spec, it need not to be that. For example, table into partition {noformat} CREATE TABLE exchange_part_test1 (f1 string) PARTITIONED BY (ds STRING); CREATE TABLE exchange_part_test2 (f1 string) ALTER TABLE exchange_part_test1 EXCHANGE PARTITION (ds='2013-04-05') WITH TABLE exchange_part_test2; {noformat} or partial partitions into parent partition {noformat} CREATE TABLE exchange_part_test1 (f1 string) PARTITIONED BY (ds STRING, hr STRING); CREATE TABLE exchange_part_test2 (f1 string) PARTITIONED BY (hr STRING) ALTER TABLE exchange_part_test1 EXCHANGE PARTITION (ds='2013-04-05') WITH TABLE exchange_part_test2; {noformat} can be possible. was: Current alter exchange coerces source and destination table to have same partition columns.
