Work on HIVE-16171 started by Sankar Hariappan. ----------------------------------------------- > Support truncate table for replication > -------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-16171 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-16171 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: repl > Reporter: Sankar Hariappan > Assignee: Sankar Hariappan > > Need to support truncate table for replication. Key points to note. > 1. For non-partitioned table, truncate table will remove all the rows from > the table. > 2. For partitioned tables, need to consider how truncate behaves if truncate > a partition or the whole table. > 3. Bootstrap load with truncate table must work as it is just > loadTable/loadPartition with empty dataset. > 4. It is suggested to re-use the alter table/alter partition events to handle > truncate. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
