Table locations

After migration from HDP 2.x, the relative paths for databases, tables, and partitions on the destination Cloudera cluster are different from HDP 2.x.

  • HDP 2.x managed table location: /apps/hive/warehouse
  • HDP 2.x external table location: /user/hive/warehouse
After migration from HDP 3.x, the relative paths for databases, tables, partitions on the destination Cloudera cluster are the same as the HDP 3.x:
  • HDP 3.x and Cloudera managed table location: /warehouse/tablespace/managed/hive
  • HDP 3.x and Cloudera external table location: /warehouse/tablespace/external/hive
