bq. Is there perhaps a way to throw an exception that is more useful to the
user than "something went wrong! go dig in the logs"?
Good point, attaching an updated patch that should shed a bit more light in the
exception message about a job that did not complete successfully.
> DistCp reports success even on failure.

> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: distcp
> Affects Versions: 0.23.1, 2.0.0-alpha

> DistCp doesn't check the job-status when run in blocking-mode, before
> returning its exit-code. (The Yahoo-internal version did this correctly.)
> In blocking-mode, DistCp must check that the launched job runs to completion,
> and return an appropriate exit-code.
> Pretty serious bug, since it affects data integrity, in Oozie-launched-DistCp
> actions.
> (I could've sworn I had another JIRA with this patch attached.)
