Hive Wiki Partition Protection
Hi,
I just noted that the CASCADE option is missing in the documentation for partition protection.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-AlterTable%2FPartitionProtections
Could somebody add it?
I would be of course ready to do this myself if I get the right.
Regards,
Jean-Charles

I've got time on my hands and wiki edit privileges, so I'd be happy to add
the CASCADE option if you tell me what to write. (Or I could do a bit of
research, write something that needs review, never get a review, and hope
for the best.)
CASCADE is mentioned in the "Drop Partitions" section with the "NO DROP"
option (
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+DDL#LanguageManualDDL-DropPartitions)
but perhaps that should say "NO_DROP" to match the syntax shown in "Alter
Table/Partition Protections" (link in previous message):
"For tables that are protected by NO DROP CASCADE, you can use the
predicate IGNORE PROTECTION to drop a specified partition or set of
partitions (for example, when splitting a table between two Hadoop
clusters)."
