    Description

      While replicating the ALTER event to convert managed table to external table, the data location for the table is changed under input base directory for external tables replication. But, the old location remains there and would be leaked for ever.

      ALTER TABLE T1 SET TBLPROPERTIES('EXTERNAL'='true');
