> I have recently seen an issue where a Hive {{CREATE TABLE}} method fails with
> {{AlreadyExistsException}} even though the table does absolutely not exist.
>
> I believe the issue is there there is a timeout/transient error with HMS and
> the backend database. So, the client submits the request to HMS, and the
> request does eventually succeed, but only after the connection to the client
> connects. Therefore, when the HMS Client "retry" functionality kicks it, the
> second time around, the table looks like it already exists.
>
> If something goes wrong during a HMS CREATE operation, we do not know the
> state of the operation and therefore it should just fail.
