[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-3863) with the hbase table,INSERT INTO can't append to the hive table

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3863?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Gallardot.Tan updated HIVE-3863:
--------------------------------

    Description: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DML
quote the LanguageManual:
"
INSERT OVERWRITE will overwrite any existing data in the table or partition
unless IF NOT EXISTS is provided for a partition (as of Hive 0.9.0)
INSERT INTO will append to the table or partition keeping the existing data in tact. (Note: INSERT INTO syntax is only available starting in version 0.8)

"

my hql like  "insert into table hive_table select xx from hbase_table" and "insert overwrite table hive_table select xx from hbase_table"

i want to insert data into the hive table from the hbase table. but INSERT INTO can't append to the table, it overwrite the table.

is it a bug?
