Hey Folks,

I am wondering what is the easiest way to migrate data off one hadoop/hive
cluster to another.

I distcp all data to new cluster, and then copied the metadata directory to
new cluster.
hive comes up fine and show tables etc but the hive location is still
pointing to old cluster

There is one command
alter table table_name set location new_location

but it doesnt work for partitioned tables, is there a way we can do it for
*ALL* partitions easily ??

Best
Bhupesh
