Alan Gates commented on HIVE-21034:
-----------------------------------
Ok, so this is really "drop all data internal to this instance". It isn't
about metadata. That makes sense. Some kind of guard rails to keep people
from doing this accidentally would be really good.
> Add option to schematool to drop Hive databases

> Issue Type: Improvement

> Priority: Major

> An option to remove all Hive managed data could be a useful addition to
> {{schematool}}.
> I propose to introduce a new flag {{-dropAllDatabases}} that would *drop all
> databases with CASCADE* to remove all data of managed tables.
