---------------------------------------

             Summary: Replicating conversion of managed to external table leaks HDFS files at target.
                 Key: HIVE-21471
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21471
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: repl
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
            Reporter: Sankar Hariappan
            Assignee: Sankar Hariappan


While replicating the ALTER event to convert managed table to external table, the data location for the table is changed under input base directory for external tables replication. But, the old location remains there and would be leaked for ever.

ALTER TABLE T1 SET TBLPROPERTIES('EXTERNAL'='true');
