title: Issue with sqoop import from mysql to hbase
body: <p>I am trying to import data from mysql to hbase using sqoop:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://&lt;hostname&gt;:3306/test --username USERNAME -P --table testtable --direct --hbase-table testtable --column-family info --hbase-row-key id --hbase-create-table
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The process runs smoothly, without any error, but the data goes to hdfs and <strong>not</strong> to hbase.</p>
  
  <p>Here is my setup:</p>
  
  <p>HBase and Hadoop is installed in distributed mode in my three server cluster. Namenode and HBase Master being one one server. Datanodes and Region server lies in two other servers. Sqoop is installed in NameNode server only.
  I am using Hadoop version 0.20.2-cdh3u3, hbase version 0.90.6-cdh3u4 and sqoop version 1.3.0-cdh3u3.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions where I am doing wrong?</p>
