Create accumulo table using sqoop

Question

Hi. I am trying to import data into accumulo table using sqoop. Thr problem is that I don't have a table that I want to insert the data into. Is there a way I can create table in Accumulo using sqoop?

Answer 1

Yes, you can create the missing table in Accumulo using sqoop. I am guessing you are using the following command:

$ sqoop import <parameters> --accumulo-table <table>

All you have to do is add another switch to this command:

$ sqoop import <parameters> --accumulo-table <table> --accumulo-create-table
