Sqoop 1 Client not started

[#1]

I have a 2 Node YARN cluster using Cloudera manager 5.4.2 and by default sqoop 2 is installed. I wanted to use Sqoop 1 and I have installed Sqoop 1 client by following the cloudera documenatation as per below link:

 http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/5-4-x/topics/cm_mc_sqoop1_client.html

http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/5-4-x/topics/cm_mc_add_service.html 

Once the Sqoop 1 client is installed and  I have deployed client configuration, restarted all services and also infact restarted entire cluster but still I see Sqoop 1 client is always in "None" state. Kindly Help

For reference, I have the screen capture from Cloudera Manager console for Sqoop 1:

As the service name suggest 'Sqoop 1 Client', and not a service deamon with ability to report its state weather it's started or stopped. Are you seeing any issues with using sqoop command?

Thanks Michalis, am quite new to sqoop usage. I have installed Sqoop1 Client and Sqoop2 using Cloudera Manager. Am able to use "Sqoop2" command and it goes into sqoop prompt like below:

[hduser@node1 ~]$ sqoop2
Sqoop home directory: /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH-5.4.1-1.cdh5.4.1.p0.6/lib/sqoop2
Sqoop Shell: Type 'help' or '\h' for help.

sqoop:000>

But When I use, "Sqoop command", am getting the following message and doesn't enter into sqoop prompt:

[hduser@node1 ~]$ sqoop
Warning: /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH-5.4.1-1.cdh5.4.1.p0.6/bin/../lib/sqoop/../accumulo does not exist! Accumulo imports will fail.
Please set $ACCUMULO_HOME to the root of your Accumulo installation.
Try 'sqoop help' for usage.
[hduser@node1 ~]$

Checked the sqoop version and it says 1.4.5 :

[hduser@node1 ~]$ sqoop version
Warning: /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH-5.4.1-1.cdh5.4.1.p0.6/bin/../lib/sqoop/../accumulo does not exist! Accumulo imports will fail.

And I wanted to use Sqoop1 to import data from Oracle to HDFS/Hive. The reason I heard is Sqoop2 is not production ready and was advised to configure Sqoop1 as per architects. 

Here am little confused, like which version of Sqoop am I using? Does Sqoop2 command also refers to sqoop1? How do I use Sqoop1 specifically?

@michalis : Can you please check on it. Many thanks

Sqoop 1.x has no prompt, as its a simple utility-like command application that has no service associated to it - very much like how Pig is.

Its usage is described in depth at its guide: http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/cdh/5/sqoop/SqoopUserGuide.html

Sqoop 2.x is a different architecture that's under heavy development and is not recommended for wide use yet. Its client has a prompt style connection to the Sqoop Service that's part of its new architecture. Its usage is separately documented at http://archive.cloudera.com/cdh5/cdh/5/sqoop2/CommandLineClient.html

Unless you are aware of Sqoop2's features and are looking for it specifically, you will likely need Sqoop 1.x (Simple 'sqoop' command) for your Sqoop needs. You can run a test command following the former user guide link posted above to ensure Sqoop 1.x command works (and it should, cause it has no dependencies or services to rely on).

Thanks @Harsh J, Appreciate your help. Just as a feedback on part of Cloudera Documentation should also include an example with Sqoop1 and Sqoop2 and that would have been very helpful too for all the users who deploy Sqoop.
