Hmmm.

 

Is there really a server/schema named servername/schemaname in your system?

 

Because that's what you are providing for your connection

 

connect to hadoop as sashdp(server=servername port=10000 schema=schemaname subprotocol=hive2);

The issue here is that you are trying to embed a SAS pass-through query within a SAS EXECUTE pass-through. Instead complete the Pass-through EXECUTE statement by putting the Hive select clause directly in the HiVE CREATE TABLE statement. Like so:

 

proc sql;

connect to hadoop as sashdp(server=servername port=10000 schema=schemaname subprotocol=hive2);

execute(create table test08_sas row format delimited fields terminated by '\001'

stored as textfile as select *,date_sub('2016-08-31',99) as date_sub_value,

case when col1>="2016-01-23 then "2016-08-30"

else "2016-07-31" end as new_col1

from table1

 

limit 10

)by hadoop;

quit;
