Alan Gates commented on HIVE-18294: ----------------------------------- You're correct that the value will have to be put in the conf file on both HS2 (or wherever the server code is running) and on the metastore (assuming they are running on separate servers). But if the correct value is in the config file the MetastoreConf methods will properly extract it. They were designed with exactly this in mind, so that we don't have to duplicate the conf enums. So you should be able to use MetastoreConf.getVar() to pull a value out hive-site.xml. > add switch to make acid table the default > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-18294 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18294 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Transactions > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Eugene Koifman > Assignee: Eugene Koifman > Attachments: HIVE-18294.01.patch, HIVE-18294.03.patch, > HIVE-18294.04.patch > > > it would be convenient for testing to have a switch that enables the behavior > where all suitable table tables (currently ORC + not sorted) are > automatically created with transactional=true, ie. full acid. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
