Hi, I was looking at the API Docs and HQL shell to create tables for Hbase. I couldn't figure out : 1) How to create column families such that each column family contains more than one column through shell. 2) Also if I want to do it programmatically, HColumnDescriptor class only lets you create column families with single columns. Is there a way to do it ? Also If I am not wrong, we can store multiple values of each column in each column family ? Is there a way I can do a bulk import from a structured text file into Hbase through the shell or any script already available ? Thanks
