                 Key: HAWQ-1547
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAWQ-1547
             Project: Apache HAWQ

            Assignee: Radar Lei


Hi,

Would it be possible to increase incubator-hawq/src/include/pg_config_manual.h property default NAMEDATALEN from 64 to 128. 

This hopefully will allow one to be able to read Hive tables from Hawq larger than 64 by default without having to change this setting when compiling for downstream systems. It will also allow for equivalently name Hawq tables.

Does anyone foresee performance challenges with the increase? 

See problem below:

In hive

CREATE TABLE default.test123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789test ( 
	rtlymth	int, 
	rtly   	int)

STORED AS ORC

in Hawq

select * from default.test123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789123456789test

ERROR: remote component error (500) from '127.0.0.1:51200':  type  Exception report   message   NoSuchObjectException(message:default.test12345678912345678912345678912345678912345678912345678912345 table not found)    description   The server encountered an internal error that prevented it from fulfilling this request.    exception   javax.servlet.ServletException: NoSuchObjectException(message:default.test12345678912345678912345678912345678912345678912345678912345 table not found) (libchurl.c:897)
  Position: 15

Thanks

Grant
