I'm trying to do a Sqoop incremental import to a Hive table using "--incremental append".

I did an initial sqoop import and then create a job for the incremental imports.
Both are executed successfully and new files have been added to the same original Hive table directory in HDFS, but when I check my Hive table, the imported observations are not there. The Hive table is equal before the sqoop incremental import.

How can I solve that?
I have about 45 Hive tables and would like to update them daily automatically after the Sqoop incremental import.

First Sqoop Import:

sqoop import 
--connect jdbc:db2://... 
--username root 
-password 9999999 
--class-name db2fcs_cust_atu 
--query "SELECT * FROM db2fcs.cust_atu WHERE $CONDITIONS" 
--split-by PTC_NR 
--fetch-size 10000 
--delete-target-dir 
--target-dir /apps/hive/warehouse/fcs.db/db2fcs_cust_atu 
--hive-import 
--hive-table fcs.cust_atu 
-m 64;

Then I run Sqoop incremental import:

sqoop job 
-create cli_atu 
--import 
--connect jdbc:db2://... 
--username root 
--password 9999999 
--table db2fcs.cust_atu 
--target-dir /apps/hive/warehouse/fcs.db/db2fcs_cust_atu 
--hive-table fcs.cust_atu 
--split-by PTC_NR 
--incremental append 
--check-column TS_CUST 
--last-value '2018-09-09'

It might be difficult to understand/answer your question without looking at your full query because your outcome also depends on your choice of arguments and directories. Mind to share your query?
