Jarek Jarcec Cecho commented on SQOOP-1306:
-------------------------------------------
"Move" is only a metadata operation and hence it's indeed required that they
are in the same filesystem. Otherwise you would need copy or distcopy to make
the "move". This limitation is imposed by HDFS, not by Sqoop.
> Allow Sqoop to move files from different FileSystems on incremental import

> Key: SQOOP-1306
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1306
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.4.4
> Reporter: Rodrigo Matihara
>
> Sqoop doesn't allow to move files from different FileSystems executing an
> import (--append or --incremental).
> Trying to import using a local temp-dir and a S3 target-dir, the operation is
> complete, however the file is not created in S3 bucket and this warning is
> raised:
> WARN - Cannot append files to target dir; no such directory:
> _sqoop/15151724000000436_31417_localhost.localdomain_<tablename>
> Looking into on source, I found that AppendUtils.java considers that tempDir
> and targetDir are at the same Filesystem.
