Hello!
Please advise on how to use Sqoop for the following task:
I need to periodically import data from MySQL table to Hive.
Records in Hive table should have an additional 'timestamp' field to
contain import time.
As I understand, I can first create table in Hive with all necessary fields
including 'timestamp' and then import data into this empty table.
Questions:
1) What value Sqoop will put into fields not existing in the input table,
such as 'timetamp' ?
2) Is there any way to ask Sqoop put current time into 'timestamp' field at
actual import time?

Thanks!
