[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-17608) REPL LOAD should overwrite the data files if exists instead of duplicating it

["Sankar Hariappan (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17608?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sankar Hariappan updated HIVE-17608:
------------------------------------
    Attachment: HIVE-17608.01.patch

Added 01.patch with below updates.
- Added load/copy type in LoadTableDesc instead of replace flag.
- Type has 3 values, REPLACE_ALL, KEEP_EXISTING, OVERWRITE_EXISTING.
- IMPORT, REPL LOAD flow uses OVERWRITE_EXISTING if replace flag is not set from source msg.
- Other normal flows such as LOAD, Acid tables continue to use KEEP_EXISTING flow which is current behaviour.

Request [~anishek] to please review the patch!

> This is to make insert event idempotent.
> Currently, MoveTask would create a new file if the destination folder contains a file of the same name. This is wrong if we have the same file in both bootstrap dump and incremental dump (by design, duplicate file in incremental dump will be ignored for idempotent reason), we will get duplicate files eventually. Also it is wrong to just retain the filename in the staging folder. Suppose we get the same insert event twice, the first time we get the file from source table folder, the second time we get the file from cm, we still end up with duplicate copy. The right solution is to keep the same file name as the source table folder.
> To do that, we can put the original filename in MoveWork, and in MoveTask, if original filename is set, don't generate a new name, simply overwrite. We need to do it in both bootstrap and incremental load.
