Hive and SAS create table statements

[dkassis]

Hi,

I am trying to create tables in HIVE from hive data using the proc sql; create table option.  These queries are taking a long time and I am seeing this statement in my log:

Streaming read DISABLED: The original HiveQL succeeded where
the streaming read CTAS failed

Is this causing any of the delays?  I am seeing that my sql was passed to Hadoop from seeing the following:

ACCESS ENGINE: SQL statement was passed to the DBMS for
fetching data.

We are configured using JDBC and pre-defined libname connections.

Thanks,

Dan

You should use the sastrace option to know exactly what SQL was passed to hive.

Even better, since you are copying from Hive to Hive, run HQL directly by using SQL passthrough:

proc sql;

   connect using HIVELIB; 

   execute by HIVELIB (create table ....); 

quit;
