Aaron Kimball commented on MAPREDUCE-972: ----------------------------------------- Because there are other operations in the distcp job (e.g., the {{write()}} calls made during the actual upload) that should timeout far faster than once per thirty minutes in the event of an error. Using a single timeout value for all operations makes program execution overall considerably less efficient than it should be. Writes and renames in distcp can expect different running times; we should treat them this way. > distcp can timeout during rename operation to s3 > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-972 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-972 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: distcp > Affects Versions: 0.20.1 > Reporter: Aaron Kimball > Assignee: Aaron Kimball > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-972.2.patch, MAPREDUCE-972.3.patch, > MAPREDUCE-972.4.patch, MAPREDUCE-972.5.patch, MAPREDUCE-972.patch > > > rename() in S3 is implemented as copy + delete. The S3 copy operation can > perform very slowly, which may cause task timeout. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
