You must have at least core Hadoop on your system. See Configure the Remote Repositories for more information.

Verify the HDP repositories are available:

yum list sqoop

The output should list at least one Sqoop package similar to the following:

sqoop.noarch <version>

If yum responds with "Error: No matching package to list" as shown below, yum cannot locate a matching RPM. This can happen if the repository hosting the HDP RPMs is unavailable, or has been disabled. Follow the instructions at Configure the Remote Repositories to configure private repository before proceeding.

Error: No matching package to list.
