Hi, Pass the -D property in command line. eg: Hadoop fs -Ddfs.block.size=<multiple of checksum> ..... You can check if its actually set the way you needed by hadoop fs -stat %o <file>

However, I can't seem to find the reference anywhere. I see that I can do it via the API but no references to a command-line mechanism. Am I just remembering something that doesn't exist? Or, can some point me in the right direction. Thanks! --Andrew
