  <conbody>

    <p>
      Use the <codeph>ALLOW_ERASURE_CODED_FILES</codeph> query option to enable or disable the
      support of erasure coded files in Impala. Until Impala is fully tested and certified with
      erasure coded files, this query option is set to <codeph>FALSE</codeph> by default.
    </p>

    <p>
      When the <codeph>ALLOW_ERASURE_CODED_FILES</codeph> query option is set to
      <codeph>FALSE</codeph>, Impala returns an error when a query requires scanning an erasure
      coded file.
    </p>

    <p>
      <b>Type:</b> <codeph>BOOLEAN</codeph>
    </p>

    <p>
      <b>Default:</b> <codeph>FALSE</codeph>
    </p>
