Answer 1

--meta-connect should have value in jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://:/sqoop format(default is hsqldb). You can change it to mysql in your case.

You can override below properties in sqoop-site.xml to pass the metastore username and password:

 
    sqoop.metastore.client.autoconnect.username
    SA
    The username to bind to the metastore.
    
  
  
    sqoop.metastore.client.autoconnect.password
    
    The password to bind to the metastore.
    
  

--meta-connect will read the username and password from here and will connect to the database.

You can refer the default sqoop-site.xml for more details
