Yongjun Zhang updated HDFS-10314:
---------------------------------
Description:
HDFS-9820 proposed adding -rdiff switch to distcp, as a reversed operation of
-diff switch.
Upon discussion with [~jingzhao], we will introduce a new tool that wraps
around distcp to achieve the same purpose.
I'm thinking about calling the new tool "rsync", similar to unix/linux command
"rsync". The "r" here means remote.
The syntax that simulate -rdiff behavior proposed in HDFS-9820 is
{code}
rsync <fromSnapshotName> <toSnapshotName> <source> <target>
{code}
This command ensure <fromSnapshotName> is newer than <toSnapshotName>.
I think, In the future, we can add another command to have the functionality of
-diff switch of distcp.
{code}
sync <fromSnapshotName> <toSnapshotName> <source> <target>
{code}
that ensures <fromSnapshotName> is older than <toSnapshotName>.
Thanks [~jingzhao].
