Thanks for your responses, effctively the answer of Bertrand make this possible: the set of hive properities below froce thet job to write the hive result in one file whithout specifing the name (0000_0) : set hive.exec.reducers.max = 1;
set mapred.reduce.tasks = 1; for Nitin, I want to store the results of SELECT not the stdout (log) of execution of the query, is this applicable for the results of SELECT? 2013/7/4 Michael Malak <michaelma...@yahoo.com> > I have found that for output larger than a few GB, redirecting stdout > results in an incomplete file.
