Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3873:
------------------------------------------------

The javadoc warnings are nothing to do with the patch.  Before I did "svn 
update" today, there were no javadoc warnings.  See HADOOP-3949

The tests failed are TestMapRed and TestMiniMRDFSSort but they failed on trunk 
(they did not fail before I did "svn update").  See HADOOP-3950

> DistCp should have an option for limiting the number of files/bytes being

> A single DistCp command may potentially copies a huge number of files/bytes.  
> In such case, DistCp will run a long time and there is no way stop it nicely. 
>  It would be good if DistCp have an option to limit the number of files/bytes 
> being copied.  Once the limit is reached, DistCp will terminate and return 
> success.  All files copied are guaranteed to be good and there is no 
> partially copied file.
