If it is a single machine and single instance - I could sucessfully run through the following command. sqoop import --connect 'jdbc:sqlserver://ABC_SERVER:1433;username=u1;password=pass1;database=cust' --table CUST_INFO --hive-table CUST_INFO --hive-import --verbose But if I have to connect to specific instances like this - sqoop import --connect 'jdbc:sqlserver://ABC_SERVER:1433/Instance_Name1;username=u1;password=pass1;database=cust' --table CUST_INFO --hive-table CUST_INFO --hive-import --verbose I am getting the error like - Unable to find the object CUST_INFO Are there any known issues while connecting to a MS SQL Server ( VM and multiple instances). Please advise.
