[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-8516) insert/values allowed against bucketed, non-transactional tables

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8516?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14183735#comment-14183735 ] 

Alan Gates commented on HIVE-8516:
----------------------------------

Actually, I think this bug is invalid.  I was confused.  Hive certainly supports inserts into bucketed tables.

> Hive does not support insert into bucketed tables.  A special exception is made for transactional tables, as they require bucketing.  
> Insert/values works against non-transactional tables, since it just dumps the values into a temp table and rewrites the query into insert/select from that temp table.  However, the check that prevents doing inserts into non-transactional, bucketed tables is not catching this case.
