The partition of hive table has been modified to point to a new directory location. Do I have to move the data to the new location or the data will be moved automatically to the new location?

Answer Posted / Manish Kakkar

When you modify the partition location, you need to manually move the data files to the new location. Hive does not move the data for you.
