Description

drop table partition_test_partitioned;

create table partition_test_partitioned(key string, value string) partitioned by (dt string);

alter table partition_test_partitioned set fileformat rcfile;
insert overwrite table partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=101) select * from src1;
show table extended like partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=101);

alter table partition_test_partitioned set fileformat Sequencefile;
insert overwrite table partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=102) select * from src1;
show table extended like partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=102);

insert overwrite table partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=101) select * from src1;
show table extended like partition_test_partitioned partition(dt=101);

drop table partition_test_partitioned;

Partition (dt=101) still points to RCFile, since it was created as a RCFile
