All technical questions about any Apache project should go to the relevant project's mailing lists:
http://hadoop.apache.org/mailing_lists.html http://www.apache.org/foundation/mailinglists.html Almost all Apache projects have a "dev@" mailing list, just like this project does, where you can ask technical questions. Many projects also have a "user@" mailing list for general use questions. Try one of those for any technical or code questions about projects. - Shane Jebastin Nalliah wrote on 11/15/15 11:01 AM: > Hi Team, > > With ref to distcp2 in https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.2.1/distcp2.html > > In the section "update and overwrite" can you please confirm on the > example. > > - update option is missing in the sample command > distcp2 hdfs://nn1:8020/source/first hdfs://nn1:8020/source/second > hdfs://nn2:8020/target > > > Also the following statement is incorrect > > If -update is used, 1 is overwritten as well.
