Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-14626: --------------------------------------- Should this change be documented in the wiki? * [DDL -- Truncate Table | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-TruncateTable] Also, how do Hive tables/partitions get encrypted? A search of the wiki for "encrypt" only had one result for the UDF aes_encrypt(). Is there also a table property? * [Hive Operators and Functions -- Misc. Functions -- aes_encrypt | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+UDF#LanguageManualUDF-Misc.Functions] > Support Trash in Truncate Table > ------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-14626 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14626 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Chaoyu Tang > Assignee: Chaoyu Tang > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.2.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-14626.1.patch, HIVE-14626.patch > > > Currently Truncate Table (or Partition) is implemented using > FileSystem.delete and then recreate the directory, so > 1. it does not support HDFS Trash > 2. if the table/partition directory is initially encryption protected, after > being deleted and recreated, it is no more protected. > The new implementation is to clean the contents of directory using > multi-threaded trashFiles. If Trash is enabled and has a lower encryption > level than the data directory, the files under it will be deleted. Otherwise, > they will be Trashed -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
