Alan Gates commented on HIVE-11388:
-----------------------------------
TxnHandler.isDuplicateKeyError - There are only cases in here for Derby and
MySQL. The other options will need to be added before this is committed.
Other than that looks good.
> there should only be 1 Initiator for compactions per Hive installation

>
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.txn.compactor.Initiator is a thread that runs
> inside the metastore service to manage compactions of ACID tables. There
> should be exactly 1 instance of this thread (even with multiple Thrift
> services).
> This is documented in
> https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Hive+Transactions#HiveTransactions-Configuration
> but not enforced.
> Should add enforcement, since more than 1 Initiator could cause concurrent
> attempts to compact the same table/partition - which will not work.
