Review Comment:
   Why do you want to set this log to warn? Can we leave this as Log.info?

>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0

>
>          Time Spent: 20m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> HMS currently has APIs like these that automatically create/delete the 
> directories on the associated DFS. 
> [create/drop]_database
> [create/drop]_table*
> [add/append/drop]_partition*
> This is expected and should be this way when query processors use this APIs. 
> However, when tools that replicate hive metadata use this APIs on the target 
> cluster, creating these dirs on target side which cause the replication of 
> DFS-snapshots to fail.
> So we if provide an option to bypass this creation of dirs, dfs replications 
> will be smoother. In the future we will need to restrict users that can use 
> these APIs. So we will have some sort of an authorization policy.
