Joseph Prosser created HDFS-7312: ------------------------------------ Summary: Update DistCp v1 to optionally not use tmp location Key: HDFS-7312 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7312 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: tools Affects Versions: 2.5.1 Reporter: Joseph Prosser Assignee: Joseph Prosser Priority: Minor
DistCp v1 currently copies files to a tmp location and then renames that to the specified destination. This can cause performance issues on filesystems such as S3. A -skiptmp flag will be added to bypass this step and copy directly to the destination. This feature mirrors a similar one added to HBase ExportSnapshot [HBASE-11119|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-11119] -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
