Adding a Table to HDFS

To add a table to HDFS:
  1. Click HDFS in the toolbar to access the HDFS content explorer.
  2. Click Add, select a table, and click OK.
  3. On the General page, specify values for the Job name, Location, and Description if you intend to save this action as a job.
  4. Select the Settings page, specify the HDFS output path and Table description, and then click Submit.
Note: If you refresh your view as a table is added to HDFS, the HDFS content explorer might show many files in the directory for the table. The filenames follow a tablename-ip-address.sashdat pattern. This is temporary and when the table is completely added to HDFS, the additional files do not appear.
