Mithun Radhakrishnan commented on HADOOP-8143:
----------------------------------------------

Sorry for the late reply. I am supportive of rolling this back. +1, non-binding.

The workaround I have suggested is unwieldy. And this change was not intended 
to mess up non-HDFS DistCp sources/targets.

bq. What made sense back then doesn't make sense now. 

Agreed, [~kihwal]. I suspect production DistCp jobs through Oozie DistCp 
Actions might already be preserving block-sizes.

Given that HDFS-13056 is in, DistCp should now be free to do CRC checks, 
without depending on matching HDFS block sizes.

> Change distcp to have -pb on by default

> We should have the preserve blocksize (-pb) on in distcp by default.        
> checksum which is on by default will always fail if blocksize is not the same.
