Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-2282:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks for the feedback [[email protected]] and [~aaditya.prodigy].
I've looked into the combination of incremental import and hive import at the
same time and those two features are indeed not designed to work together as
well. The variant of incremental {{append}} mode "happens" to work, but the
{{lastmodified}} variant won't work at all. Hence I think that we were "lucky"
before and hence the check do seems to make sense.
I still do not like that we broke the production use cases, so would it make
sense to add a check that will re-enable the combination of {{append}}
incremental job and hive import and effectively promotes this combination as
first class (and hence supported) citizen?
> Add validation check for --hive-import and --append
