> Hello team,
> I create a table in Drill using CTAS as
> CREATE TABLE CTAS_TEST AS SELECT * FROM `hive.default`.`test` WHERE 1 = 0
> It runs successfully.
> But the table is not getting created as there are 0 records getting returned from the SELECT query. 
> CTAS should still go ahead and create the table with the column metadata.
> When BI tools fire up multi-pass queries, with CTAS in the first query, the subsequent queries fail because of a missing table.
> In databases like SQL Server, Postgres, CTAS will create the table, even if the SELECT doesnt return any rows.
