>                 Key: HIVE-19961
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19961
>             Project: Hive
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Transactions
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
>            Assignee: Eugene Koifman
>            Priority: Major
>
> This is necessary for correctness since each add partition consists of 2 parts
>  # Add Partition metadata object to metastore
>  # Create a delta dir and copy data there.  
> This means it's neither Atomic not Isolated.  Isolation is fixed by using X lock (which is currently on the table.  todo: see if it can be made on the partition being created - this may block table level locks...)
> Atomicity would have to be addressed by adding a write ID to Partition to that it's not visible until Hive transaction has committed.
