Almost forgot about this one. I will open a ticket for this one.

Oozie 4.2 and 4.3 use Hadoop 2.4. On Wed, Jun 7, 2017 at 2:07 PM, Artem Ervits <[email protected]> wrote: Jan, extended attributes were added in Hadoop 2.6+. We just bumped Hadoop 2.6 to Oozie master. Consider filing a jira to add this functionality to distcp action.

The action is used to back up a file to another location. The file has extended attributes attached to it and I would like to also have them in the backup location. Using the DistCp command I can pass in the flag –px to preserve the extended attributes. I haven’t seen a way yet to preserve the attributes in the DistCp action in Oozie. Is there a way in the DistCp action to do this? So far, I haven’t seen a JIRA ticket covering this. Best, Jan
