Limitations

This version of the Cloudera Connector for Netezza has several functional limitations.

  • Direct mode does not support import into HBase.
  • Direct mode does not support export using updates.
  • This connector does not support data type TIME.
  • Direct mode does not support import-all-tables.
  • Direct mode does not support imports from views or materialized views.
  • Direct mode does not support import into or export from Avro.
  • The number of records transferred, as reported on the console by Sqoop for an import or export operation, reflects the total number of records processed, not the number of records that were actually transferred. The number of records transferred may be less than the number of records processed due to rejection of bad records. This can happen if the number of bad records encountered is less than the value of the --nz-maxerrors option, and therefore is not sufficient to cause the transfer operation to abort.
