Hi, The CONCATENATE command working just fine for non-bucketing tables.
If MY_TABLE created with buckets and when I'm running (for example) the command ALTER TABLE MY_TABLE PARTITION(D='2013-01-01') CONCATENATE - I get following error: "FAILED: SemanticException org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.parse.SemanticException: Merge can not perform on bucketized partition/table" Questions: 1. I'm running hive 0.12 ; does hive 0.13 will support it? 2. Any suggestion for workaround? How can I merge buckets files under partition? Thanks a lot! Dsass
