[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-18748) Rename table impacts the ACID behaviour as table names are not updated in meta-tables.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-18748?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16394823#comment-16394823 ] 

Sankar Hariappan commented on HIVE-18748:
-----------------------------------------

Currently, we propose to disable rename table/partition operations if it involves ACID table.

> ACID implementation uses metatables such as TXN_COMPONENTS, COMPLETED_TXN_COMPONENTS, COMPACTION_QUEUE, COMPLETED_COMPCTION_QUEUE etc to manage ACID operations.
> Per table write ID implementation (HIVE-18192) introduces couple of metatables such as NEXT_WRITE_ID and TXN_TO_WRITE_ID to manage write ids allocated per table.
> Now, when we rename any tables, it is necessary to update the corresponding table names in these metatables as well. Otherwise, ACID table operations won't work properly.
> Since, this change is significant and have other side-effects, we propose to disable rename tables on ACID tables until a fix is figured out.
