Ravi Prakash commented on HADOOP-14189:
---------------------------------------

Thanks Allen for your comment! I think the problem users face is that most of 
them want a common set of distcp options to be used all of the time. A 
distcp-site.xml (or other configuration place) would have been a natural place 
to put them. IMHO data transfer is important enough to merit this extra 
configuration file. Although I do get your point about having configuration 
strewn all over in multiple files. I'm not sure there is a better alternative 
though :( . Could we please continue on HADOOP-10738 ?

> add distcp-site.xml for distcp on branch-2

> On hadoop 2.x , we could not config hadoop parameters for distcp. It only 
> uses distcp-default.xml.
> We should add distcp-site.xml to overrides hadoop paramers.
