Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-8233:
----------------------------------------

looks like this is still an issue

> Turn CRC checking off for 0 byte size and differing blocksizes

> DistcpV2 (hadoop-tools/hadoop-distcp/..) can fail from checksum failure, 
> sometimes when copying a 0 byte file.    Root cause of this may have to do 
> with an inconsistent nature of HDFS when creating 0 byte files, however 
> distcp can avoid this issue by not checking CRC when size is zero.
> Further, distcp fails checksum when copying from two clusters that use 
> different blocksizes.  In this case it does not make sense to check CRC, as 
> it is a guaranteed failure.
> We need to turn CRC checking off for the above two cases.
