Yongjun Zhang commented on HADOOP-11794:
----------------------------------------

Thanks much all!

[~omkarksa], 

All the changes except one you need was already in rev9. I will add it in next 
rev.

All:
About
{code}
  /**
   * Same as this(NameNode.getNNAddress(conf), conf);
   * @see #DFSClient(InetSocketAddress, Configuration)
   * @deprecated Deprecated at 0.21
   */
  @Deprecated
  public DFSClient(Configuration conf) throws IOException {
    this(DFSUtilClient.getNNAddress(conf), conf);
  }
{code}
I am not sure why this API is marked deprecated, it seems a good convenient API 
to exist. Wonder if we should remove the deprecation?

Thanks.

> The minimum unit of work for a distcp task is a file. We have files that are 
> greater than 1 TB with a block size of  1 GB. If we use distcp to copy these 
> files, the tasks either take a long long long time or finally fails. A better 
> way for distcp would be to copy all the source blocks in parallel, and then 
> stich the blocks back to files at the destination via the HDFS Concat API 
> (HDFS-222)
