Arvind Prabhakar commented on SQOOP-322:
----------------------------------------
Thanks Alex for taking this up.
I don't think we should be creating a database if it does not exist, which
should be an error condition. The reason being that while in its current state
the Hive databases are just a layer of namespace abstraction, going forward
they are likely to evolve towards different administrative boundaries.
> Allow specification of Hive Database name when operating on Hive table
