Can not ALTER or DROP a big Imapa partitionned tables - CAUSED BY: MetaException: Timeout when executing

Viewed 1290

I have a several impala partitionned tables that have more than 50k partitions, it work a good except the Hive Metastore operations, like DROP and ALTER ... RENAME, I face this error message:

Query: drop table cars

ERROR: ImpalaRuntimeException: Error making 'dropTable' RPC to Hive Metastore: CAUSED BY: MetaException: Timeout when executing method: drop_table_with_environment_context; 600003ms exceeds 600000ms

I don't know if it's a memory problem? or it's normal and I should adjust the timeout value.. ? if yes, which one ?

Any help would be appreciated.
