             Summary: Output path validation of an action statement resulting 
in runtime exception
                 Key: SPARK-4402
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4402
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Vijay
            Priority: Minor


Output path validation is happening at the time of statement execution as a 
part of lazyevolution of action statement. But if the path already exists then 
it throws a runtime exception. Hence all the processing completed till that 
point is lost which results in resource wastage (processing time and CPU usage).

If this I/O related validation is done before the RDD action operations then 
this runtime exception can be avoided.
I believe similar validation/ feature is implemented in hadoop also.

Example:

SchemaRDD.saveAsTextFile() evaluated the path during runtime
