{{hadoop fs -du -h}} prints sizes with a space between the number and the unit: {code} $ hadoop fs -du -h ..... 91.7 G .... 583.1 M .... 97.6 K ..... {code} The standard unix {{du -h}} does not: {code} $ du -h 400K ... 404K .... 480K ..... {code} the result is that the output of {{du -h}} is properly sorted by {{sort -h}} while the output of {{hadoop fs -du -h}} is *not* properly sorted by it.
