Sqoop is really a command line utility, so the best way to kick off sqoop jobs is very much on the console at the moment. You might also consider using Apache NiFi (HDF) for getting data out of relational sources if your use cases are reasonably simple (GBs rather than TBs).

For now, Sqoop can be run only from the HDP machine. Refer to below Tutorial link:

Does the above error means my sqoop import command will fail ? how do i overcome the above error.

That is the warning wrt ACCUMULO setting and would not affect the Sqoop run. This warning can be ignored.
