Gil Vernik updated MAPREDUCE-6854:
----------------------------------
Description:
Consider an example: a local file "/data/a.txt" need to be copied into
swift://container.service/data/a.txt
The way distcp works is that first it will upload "/data/a.txt" into
swift://container.mil01/data/.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0
Upon completion distcp will move
swift://container.mil01/data/.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0
into swift://container.mil01/data/a.txt
************************************
The temporary file naming convention assumes that each map task will
sequentially create objects as swift://container.mil01/.distcp.tmp.attempt_ID
and then rename them to the final names. Most of Hadoop eco system components
use object.name which is part of the temporary name, however distcp doesn't use
such approach.
This JIRA propose to add a configuration key indicating that temporary objects
will also include object name as part of their temporary file name,
For example
"/data/a.txt" will be uploaded into
"swift://container.mil01/data/.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0/a.txt"
or
"swift://container.mil01/data/a.txt.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0"
"a.txt.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0" doesn't affects
flows in the drivers, since "a.txt" is not considered as a sub-directory so no
special operations will be taken. The benefit is that different systems may
expect "a.txt.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0" and extract
value prior "distcp.tmp"

************************************
The temporary file naming convention assumes that each map task will
sequentially create objects as swift://container.mil01/.distcp.tmp.attempt_ID
and then rename them to the final names. Such flow is problematic in the
object stores, where it usually advised not to create, delete and create object
under the same name.
This JIRA propose to add a configuration key indicating that temporary objects
will also include object name as part of their temporary file name,
For example
"/data/a.txt" will be uploaded into
"swift://container.mil01/data/.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0/a.txt"
or
"swift://container.mil01/data/a.txt/.distcp.tmp.attempt_local2036034928_0001_m_000000_0"
> Each map task should create a unique temporary name that includes an object
