Hi everyone – new to the forum and posting with the hope that someone can help….
I have an external table that has one partition (string). I did an initial load of data with dynamic partitions and it created several partition folders.
Subsequently, I have tried to insert data in several different ways, with the intent that the data be appended into existing partition folders. However, the existing partition is deleted and replaced with the results of the newest insert.
I have tried this both with and without dynamic partitions, but the behavior is the same. Where do I start looking? And please let me know if you need any additional information….
Thanks – John
