[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-14511) Improve MSCK for partitioned table to deal with special cases

["Sergey Shelukhin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14511?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15415794#comment-15415794 ] 

Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-14511:
-----------------------------------------

Where does that folder come from? I think if it's for the use case where people use msck to "import" manually created partitions, we should not encourage it, it's not even a supported scenario. If it continues to be misused, at least it can be misused correctly :)
Otherwise, did Hive create those directories with nested directories? Is it for ACID case or something like that?

> Some users will have a folder rather than a file under the last partition folder. However, msck is going to search for the leaf folder rather than the last partition folder. We need to improve that.
