sqoop job \
  --create sqoop_import_products \
  -- import \
  --connect "jdbc:mysql://quickstart:3306/retail_db" \
  --username retail_dba \
  --password cloudera \
  --table products \
  --target-dir "/cca175/ps27/products/" \
  --fields-terminated-by "|" \
  --lines-terminated-by "\n" \

NOTE:

  1. there is a blank before the import keyword in -- import. --import (no blank before import) will not work!!!
