                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6060
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: tools/distcp
    Affects Versions: 0.21.0
            Reporter: Ravi Gummadi
            Assignee: Ravi Gummadi
             Fix For: 0.21.0


distcp can retry specified number of times copying if the mapreduce job fails 
with transient error.

Providing option -retries <num_tries> to discp would be useful for users who 
copy large amount of data and see transient errors.
