Hi folks. I've been trying out Beeline and have a couple questions. I
haven't seen a ton of documentation or examples of people using Beeline, so
I wanted to bounce these off you...


- When I use Beeline in embedded mode - connecting with jdbc:hive2:// (I'm
running on the Big Insights distribution - Hive 0.12), I get TONS of INFO
messages. It's like the driver is printing out all sorts of info. Which can
be useful to a developer. But I couldn't figure out how to reduce the
quantity of messages, even after trying all the various Beeline commands
like silent, verbose, etc...

- When I run Beeline and connect to Hive in non-embedded mode, I get NO
INFO messages. Really nothing. If I run a query, it sits and comes back
when it's done. I don't see those messages the CLI always gave me that give
info on How many Mappers and Reducers the job(s) are taking, the percentage
completed, etc...
Is it possible to get similar information to what the old CLI prints out,
from within Beeline?

Is there any way to do HDFS commands from within Beeline, like we can do in
the original CLI (i.e. dfs -ls ......)?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
