can you sqoop from hive db to another hive db?

Question

we have 2 different Hadoop clusters, and I was wondering if you can sqoop data between hive dbs/tables. I've been looking for this for a while but i can't find it.

Cluster1:                    Cluster2
db: metrics                  db:metrics
table: disk                  table: disk

output on Cluster2:

db: metrics
table:disk
where disk= Cluster1.disk Union Cluster2.disk

really, I can add the logic easy, I just wanted to know if you can use sqoop to import data from hive to hive.

Thanks in advance.

Sqoop doesn't do that. Try using Apache Falcon version 0.4 which adds support for Hive replication.
