hadoop dfs commands showing inconsistent behaviour..
----------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-3088
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3088
Project: Hadoop Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: dfs
Affects Versions: 0.15.3
Reporter: Gautam Kowshik
We're seeing inconsistent behavior with hadoop commands
hadoop dfs -mkdir a/*
Will create a directory called '*' which cannot be deleted using rm (which
successfully does expand the *).
Additionally, I am having a problem I didn't have before:
If I want to dfsput large number of files without having to spawn the dfs -put
for every file.. I cannot just do a
hadoop dfs -put local_folder/file_* dfs_folder/
I get :
"Usage: java FsShell [-put <localsrc> <dst>]"
The shell does the expansion but -put has a problem with more than one. This is
a fairly rudimentary functionality to have that can improve data movement
efficiency.
Also, can I have an alternative for this? I need to push all files that appear
in a local folder to the same dest folder again and again.
