             Summary: Log more information about duplicate row errors when inserting into Kudu
                 Key: IMPALA-9163
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9163
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Andrew Wong


When inserting rows into a Kudu table wherein some row keys already exist, depending on the expectations of the dataset, it might be nice to know which write operations were rejected due to a duplicate key error. Today, when inserting such rows through Hue or Impala shell, users are met with a more general error:

{{Key already present in Kudu table 'default.loadgen_auto_157eac2da1dc4df2824c9a1d51bb3f3f'.}}

While this nicely avoids excessive error messages (per IMPALA-3704) when there are many duplicate rows, in cases where few duplicate rows are expected, knowing exactly which rows offended the uniqueness constraint might be nice instead. Not sure what exact form factor this might take, but it seems like it'd be a usability win in some cases.
