SQOOP-3324: Document SQOOP-816: Sqoop add support for external Hive tables
(Fero Szabo via Szabolcs Vasas)
> Scoop and support for external Hive tables
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SQOOP-816
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-816
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: hive-integration
> Reporter: Santosh Achhra
> Assignee: Chris Teoh
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: External, Hive,, Scoop,, Tables, newbie
> Fix For: 1.4.7
>
>
> Sqoop is not supporting HIVE external tables at the moment. Any imports using
> scoop creates a managed table, in real world scenario it is very important to
> have EXTERNAL tables. As of now we have to execute ALTER statement to change
> table properties to make the the table as external table which is not a big
> deal but it would nice have an option in scoop to specify type of table which
> is required
