             Summary: Ambari should manage Sqoop metastore to facilitate 
incremental loads
                 Key: AMBARI-15106
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-15106
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Vlad


Sqoop metastore is needed to enable incremental import jobs executed through 
Oozie. This metastore should be managed (install/start/stop/monitor) by Ambari.

Sqoop incremental import jobs require --last-value parameter.   So that a user 
doesn't have to remember the parameter after each Sqoop execution a Sqoop job 
can be saved to the metastore where this parameter is remembered.  With out a 
central metastore Sqoop saves the data to $HOME/.sqoop/ and that does not work 
when executing a Sqoop job from Oozie.
