    You should run the sqoop command on the machine where you have Hive installed, because sqoop will look for $HIVE_HOME/bin/hive to execute the CREATE TABLE ... and other statements.

    Alternatively, you could use sqoop with the --hive-home command line option to specify where your Hive is installed (just overrides $HIVE_HOME)

    To connect to your remote RDBMS:

    sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://remote-server/mytable --username xxx --password yyy

    To import into Hive:

    sqoop import --hive-import

    You can get a more comprehensive list of commands by looking at http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh/3/sqoop/SqoopUserGuide.html#_literal_sqoop_import_literal“>this link.
