Sushanth Sowmyan commented on HIVE-16686:
-----------------------------------------
Actually, ignore the above patch - this introduces a pretty glaring security
hole if it goes in - I'll let the ptest run on it, but this is not the version
that should go in as-is.
> repli invocations of distcp needs additional handling

> When REPL LOAD invokes distcp, there needs to be a way for the user invoking
> REPL LOAD to pass on arguments to distcp. In addition, there is sometimes a
> need for distcp to be invoked from within an impersonated context, such as
> running as user "hdfs", asking distcp to preserve ownerships of individual
> files.
