Sai Karthik Ganguru updated SQOOP-1364:
---------------------------------------
Description:
When an already existing Sqoop job is executed, it always prompts for a
password. Even if we include --password in the CLI:
$sqoop job --exec PHL -- --password abcd
*PHL is the stored Sqoop job name.
After executing the above command, it prompts for a password and even if we
enter some junk value (not necessarily the password) it continues to execute
fine.
Steps to be taken:
Either it should not prompt for a password when we pass the --password parameter
or
If the Sqoop job was intended to prompt for a password always, then it should
not take any junk value that is passed onto it.
Note: If we can remove the prompt for a password when the --password option is
used in the command, this will benefit people running Sqoop jobs through
schedulers like Autosys (which will not be responsive to the password prompts
that the Sqoop job throws).
