> There is a need to perform fast file copy on HDFS. The fast copy mechanism 
> for a file works as
> follows :
> 1) Query metadata for all blocks of the source file.
> 2) For each block 'b' of the file, find out its datanode locations.
> 3) For each block of the file, add an empty block to the namesystem for
> the destination file.
> 4) For each location of the block, instruct the datanode to make a local
> copy of that block.
> 5) Once each datanode has copied over its respective blocks, they
> report to the namenode about it.
> 6) Wait for all blocks to be copied and exit.
> This would speed up the copying process considerably by removing top of
> the rack data transfers.
> Note : An extra improvement, would be to instruct the datanode to create a
> hardlink of the block file if we are copying a block on the same datanode
