[jira] [Created] (HIVE-17805) SchemaTool validate locations should not return exit 1

Vihang Karajgaonkar created HIVE-17805:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: SchemaTool validate locations should not return exit 1
                 Key: HIVE-17805
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17805
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
            Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar
            Priority: Minor


{{HiveSchemaTool}} can be used by other applications to validate the metastore schema. One of the validation check looks at the location URLs of tables/DBs and returns {{false}} which causes HiveSchemaTool to exit 1 to the calling script. Invalid locations although are a problem in some instances, cannot be termed as catastrophic errors in the schema which should cause Hive service failure/unusable. Ideally we should introduce warning levels and error levels in schemaTool validations so the caller can take appropriate action.
