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

             Summary: "alter table add partition" should support 
db_name.table_name as table name.
                 Key: HIVE-6933
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6933
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: SQL
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Gwen Shapira


Currently, 
"alter table table_name add partition ...." works.
but
"alter table db_name.table_name add partition ..." throws an error message 
(different error for different versions).

For consistency, I suggest with support both ways of referring to a table.
