Issue while trying to store hbase data using pig

Hi,

  I am trying to store output from the pig relation into hbase using the
following code

store hbasedata into 'hbase://evallist' USING
org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage('fa:ID,fa:date,fa:email,fa:customername');

But it throws

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Must specify table name

can any one help me in this?

Below was example from another thread involving HBaseStorage :

test  = LOAD '$TEST'
USING org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.hbase.HBaseStorage('cf_data:name
cf_data:age', '-loadKey true -maxTimestamp $test_date')
as (age);

Can you adjust your statement so that the table name is correctly specified
?

Thanks
