Description

From the test logs, the createTime field for the table object when it was stored in notification is 1480852597:

<Table(tableName:hcatcreatetable, dbName:default, owner:hiveptest, createTime:1480852597, lastAccessTime:0, retention:0, sd:StorageDescriptor(cols:[FieldSchema(name:onecol, type:string, comment:)], location:pfile:/home/hiveptest/104.154.199.46-hiveptest-1/apache-github-source-source/itests/hcatalog-unit/target/warehouse/hcatcreatetable, inputFormat:org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TextInputFormat, outputFormat:org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveIgnoreKeyTextOutputFormat, compressed:false, numBuckets:0, serdeInfo:SerDeInfo(name:null, serializationLib:org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.LazySimpleSerDe, parameters:{serialization.format=1}), bucketCols:null, sortCols:null, parameters:null), partitionKeys:[], parameters:{transient_lastDdlTime=1480852596}, viewOriginalText:null, viewExpandedText:null, tableType:MANAGED_TABLE)> 

However, when the notification is read and the table object is reconstructed on client side, the createTime is 1480852596:

<Table(tableName:hcatcreatetable, dbName:default, owner:hiveptest, createTime:1480852596, lastAccessTime:0, retention:0, sd:StorageDescriptor(cols:[FieldSchema(name:onecol, type:string, comment:)], location:pfile:/home/hiveptest/104.154.199.46-hiveptest-1/apache-github-source-source/itests/hcatalog-unit/target/warehouse/hcatcreatetable, inputFormat:org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TextInputFormat, outputFormat:org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveIgnoreKeyTextOutputFormat, compressed:false, numBuckets:0, serdeInfo:SerDeInfo(name:null, serializationLib:org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.lazy.LazySimpleSerDe, parameters:{serialization.format=1}), bucketCols:null, sortCols:null, parameters:null), partitionKeys:[], parameters:{transient_lastDdlTime=1480852596}, viewOriginalText:null, viewExpandedText:null, tableType:MANAGED_TABLE)>

This also happens intermittently. Need to investigate.
