---------------------------------------
Summary: Sqoop: Provide CLI arguments to pass custom Hive CREATE
TABLE command while importing using incremental imports.
Key: SQOOP-938
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-938
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: hive-integration
Affects Versions: 1.4.1-incubating
Environment: CentOS release 6.3 (final) with cloudera hadoop-cdh-4.1.3
Oozie version-3.2.0
Java version-1.6.0_24
Sqoop version - 1.4.1
Hive Version - 0.9.0
Reporter: Suresh Srinivasan
Priority: Trivial
We are not able to provide custom hive CREATE TABLE command while executing
sqoop import (from MySql) into Hive using incremental imports feature. Sqoop
automatically generate's a Hive script containing a CREATE TABLE operation
defining our columns using Hive's types.
Note: By default, Hive tables are created with underlying storage unit as HDFS.
To change the underlying storage unit, it is good to pass custom Hive CREATE
TABLE command to the Sqoop incremental import command.
