Hi All:

  I am trying to get -e option in hive CLI work for me. Looks like it isn't 
straight forward.


hadoopnode1:~ hadoop$ hive
hive> desc temp_logs;
OK
log_time        string  
namespace       string  
json    string  
ds      string  
hour    string  
Time taken: 2.832 seconds
hive> exit; 


          
hadoopnode1:~ hadoop$ hive -e "desc temp_logs;"
FAILED: Parse Error: line 1:0 cannot recognize input near 'desc' '<EOF>' 
'<EOF>' in describe statement



What is -e expecting the query to be?
