This is the description for the Hive one, if I change HIVE to HBase, is it good enough?
Thx -clr Category Hive Tables Exposed to Customer CQD HIVE_DEFAULT_CHARSET Contact Hans Description This default tells Trafodion what character set the columns of Hive tables should have. Values ISO88591, UTF8. Default: UTF8 Usage Set this to ISO88591 when reading from Hive tables with ISO8859-1 data.

I had thought that CQD DEFAULT_CHARSET ‘UTF8’ would achieve this. But I tried it this morning, and it doesn’t seem to work. I still get ISO88591 by default on CREATE TABLE. Maybe something is broken.

Hi, all, When create a table in Trafodion, by default, CHAR/VARCHAR columns will have ISO88591 as charset. Is there any way to change this default behavior, so by default, create table will have UTF8 as charset,without explicitly specify in DDL. Thanks, Ming
