[FEATURE] Add option to convert external table to managed table
Is there an existing issue for this?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
Problem statement
This issue is a place holder for now, because the upstream feature is not released yet.
We soon will have a feature to in place convert UC external table to UC managed table with command like
ALTER TABLE main.default.ext_tbl1 SET UC_MANAGED [WITH READ CLONES]
More details of this feature can be found here
UCX should help customers to convert their UC external tables.
Proposed Solution
- Add a new workflow to convert migrated UC external tables to UC managed tables. Customers can decide if they want to run this workflow.
- Add a step at the end of table migration workflow to further convert the just migrated external table to managed table. Customer can decide if this step will be triggered or not.
