Starting, Stopping, and Accessing the Sqoop 2 Server

Starting the Sqoop 2 Server

  Note: Sqoop 2 is deprecated and will be removed from CDH in a future release. Cloudera recommends using Sqoop 1.

After you have completed all of the required configuration steps, you can start Sqoop 2 server:

$ sudo /sbin/service sqoop2-server start

Stopping the Sqoop 2 Server

$ sudo /sbin/service sqoop2-server stop

Checking that the Sqoop 2 Server has Started

You can verify whether the server has started correctly by connecting to its HTTP interface. The simplest way is to get the server version using following command:

$ wget -qO - localhost:12000/sqoop/version

You should get a text fragment in JSON format similar to the following:

{"version":"1.99.2-cdh5.0.0",...}

Accessing the Sqoop 2 Server with the Sqoop 2 Client

Start the Sqoop 2 client:

sqoop2

Identify the host where your server is running (we will use localhost in this example):

sqoop:000> set server --host localhost

Test the connection by running the command show version --all to obtain the version number from server. You should see output similar to the following:

sqoop:000> show version --all
server version:
  Sqoop 1.99.2-cdh5.0.0 revision ...
  Compiled by jenkins on ...
client version:
  Sqoop 1.99.2-cdh5.0.0 revision ...
  Compiled by jenkins on ...
