Issue Time Tracking ------------------- Worklog Id: (was: 795970) Time Spent: 20m (was: 10m) > HMS APIs to be enhanced for metadata replication > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-26012 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-26012 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Metastore > Affects Versions: 3.1.0 > Reporter: Naveen Gangam > Assignee: Hongdan Zhu > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > Attachments: HMS APIs to be enhanced for metadata replication.docx > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
