             Summary: start-impala-cluster.py needs to work without tables 
loaded
                 Key: IMPALA-14130
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-14130
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Infrastructure
    Affects Versions: Impala 5.0.0
            Reporter: Joe McDonnell


IMPALA-13850 changed the behavior of bin/start-impala-cluster.py to wait for 
the number of tables to be at least one. This is needed to detect that the 
catalog has seen at least one update. There is special logic in dataload to 
start Impala without tables in that circumstance.

This broke the perf-AB-test job, which starts Impala before loading data. There 
are other times when we want to start Impala without tables, and it is 
inconvenient to need to specify --wait_num_tables each time.

We should detect the catalog update by some means other than the number of 
tables, and it needs to work without requiring data to be loaded. Maybe the 
number of databases could work.
