[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-6109) Support customized location for EXTERNAL tables created by Dynamic Partitioning

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6109?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14128873#comment-14128873 ]

-------------------------------

Satish Mittal,

You participation is phenomenal in this forum and very helpful for new users like me.

I need to use dynamic partitioning -Custom pattern and i am missing something very obvious.

Do i need to set up  hcat.dynamic.partitioning.custom.pattern in Hive CLI as both Hcatalog and Hive are integrated together. ? My path for partition in external table is asusual like data/year=2013/month=jan/
But i need data/year/month.. Do i need to amend location for this external table.?

Please accept apologies if i sound very basic. Thanks in advance

> Currently when dynamic partitions are created by HCatalog, the underlying directories for the partitions are created in a fixed 'Hive-style' format, i.e. root_dir/key1=value1/key2=value2/.... and so on. However in case of external table, user should be able to control the format of directories created for dynamic partitions.
