Description

Steps :
In carbon.properties the mdt file directory path is configured as Carbon.update.sync.folder=hdfs://hacluster/user/test1 or /tmp/test1/

In beeline user creates a database by specifying the carbon store path and creates a carbon table in the db.
drop database if exists test_db1 cascade;
create database test_db1 location 'hdfs://hacluster/user/test1';
use test_db1;
create table if not exists ORDERS(O_ORDERDATE string,O_ORDERPRIORITY string,O_ORDERSTATUS string,O_ORDERKEY string,O_CUSTKEY string,O_TOTALPRICE double,O_CLERK string,O_SHIPPRIORITY int,O_COMMENT string) STORED BY 'org.apache.carbondata.format'TBLPROPERTIES ('table_blocksize'='128');

User checks in HDFS UI if the mdt file is created in directory specified (hdfs://hacluster/user/test1 as per configuration in carbon.properties.

Issue : mdt file is not created in directory specified (hdfs://hacluster/user/test1) as per configuration in carbon.properties. Also the folder is not created if the user configures the folder path as Carbon.update.sync.folder=/tmp/test1/

Expected : mdt file should be created in directory specified (hdfs://hacluster/user/test1) or /tmp/test1/ as per configuration in carbon.properties.
