Alex Newman commented on SQOOP-322:
-----------------------------------
So I played around with this, and I have a patch which works. The user
specifies a --hive-db=<db> and the HiveQL parts are modified appropriately.
However, in the process of writing the patch, I realized that you can do this
with the current code base.
sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/foo --table baz
--hive-table=foo.baz --hive-import --create-hive-table
Does exactly what you hope it would do.
> Allow specification of Hive Database name when operating on Hive table
