Starting Hive
You can start the Hive shell
from HIVE_HOME/bin/
with
the hive
command. Example:
/opt/mapr/hive/hive-<version>/bin/hive
When the Hive shell starts, it reads an initialization file
called .hiverc
which is located in
the HIVE_HOME/bin/
or $HOME/
directories.
You can edit this file to set custom parameters or commands that
initialize the Hive command-line environment, one command per
line.
When you run the Hive shell, you can specify a MySQL
initialization script file using
the -i
option. Example:
/opt/mapr/hive/hive-<version>/bin/hive -i <filename>
