| As the name implies the query option <code class="ph codeph">REFRESH_UPDATED_HMS_PARTITIONS</code> is used |
| to refresh any updated HMS partitions. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p class="p">This option is disabled by default so that the performance is not compromised when refreshing a |
| table. However, for certain corner case scenarios refresh table command does not detect changed |
| partitions. In case of the default refresh, catalogd detects, adds any new partitions and removes |
| any partitions which are not present in HMS anymore. However, it does not update any partitions |
| that changed (eg. change of location). When this query option is enabled, the refresh table |
| command will detect certain changes to the partitions and update them accordingly. Currently, |
| catalogd will update the partitions if any of the following StorageDescriptor properties have |
| been modified. 1. Partition Location 2. Partition Fileformat. 3 SerdeInfo. 4. Partition schema |
| changes. 5. Partition bucketInfo.</p> |
