I have some Hive tables that are partitioned by an int field. When I tried to do a Sqoop import using Sqoops HCatalog support, it failed complaining that HCatalog only supports string partitions. However, I’ve used HCatalog in mapReduce jobs with int partitions successfully. The docs that I’ve seen don’t go into much detail on this subject. Can someone clarify or point me to a definitive doc? (Hive 0.13)
Thanks Brian
