[jira] [Created] (SPARK-2825) Allow creating external tables in metastore

Aaron Davidson created SPARK-2825:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow creating external tables in metastore
                 Key: SPARK-2825
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-2825
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Aaron Davidson


External tables are useful for creating a metastore entry that points at pre-existing data. There is an easy workaround to use registerAsTable within SparkSQL itself, but this is only transient, and has to be re-run for every Spark session.
