--------------------------------------
With the uploaded patch
[HADOOP-13114-trunk_2016-05-08-1.patch|https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12802907/HADOOP-13114-trunk_2016-05-08-1.patch]
there is a issue with directory naming. The change was intended to change the
file name(append the codec file extensioin), but the patch is changing the
directory name itself instead of file names. Working on patch to fix it.
> DistCp should have option to compress data on write

> DistCp utility should have capability to store data in user specified
> compression format. This avoids one hop of compressing data after transfer.
> Backup strategies to different cluster also get benefit of saving one IO
> operation to and from HDFS, thus saving resources, time and effort.
> * Create an option -compressOutput defaulting to
> {{org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BZip2Codec}}.
> * Users will be able to change codec with {{-D
> mapreduce.output.fileoutputformat.compress.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec}}
> * If distcp compression is enabled, suffix the filenames with default codec
> extension to indicate the file is compressed. Thus users can be aware of what
> codec was used to compress the data.
