# To run the program in using remote hiveserver in non-kerberos mode, we need the following jars in the classpath
# from hive/build/dist/lib
#     hive-jdbc*.jar
#     hive-service*.jar
#     libfb303-0.9.0.jar#  libthrift-0.9.0.jar# log4j-1.2.16.jar# slf4j-api-1.6.1.jar# slf4j-log4j12-1.6.1.jar# commons-logging-1.0.4.jar#
#
# Following additional jars are needed for the kerberos secure mode -
#     hive-exec*.jar
#     commons-configuration-1.6.jar
#  and from hadoop - hadoop-*core.jar
# To run the program in embedded mode, we need the following additional jars in the classpath
# from hive/build/dist/lib
#     hive-exec*.jar
#     hive-metastore*.jar
#     antlr-runtime-3.0.1.jar

#     jdo2-api-2.1.jar
#     jpox-core-1.2.2.jar
#     jpox-rdbms-1.2.2.jar
#
# from hadoop/build
#     hadoop-*-core.jar
# as well as hive/build/dist/conf, any HIVE_AUX_JARS_PATH set, and hadoop jars necessary to run MR jobs (eg lzo codec)

# Alternatively, you can run the following bash script, which will seed the data file
