mukund-thakur edited a comment on issue #1404: HDFS-13660 Copy file till the source file length during distcp URL: https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/1404#issuecomment-530764029 > yes. It's a change in behaviour, but probably a good one. A test will verify that things fail the way we expect -and will continue to do so. > I tried writing the truncate test case but truncate calls always fails while copy is happening with error. ( Failed to TRUNCATE_FILE /tmp/source/1/3 for DFSClient_NONMAPREDUCE_-2094558173_166 on 127.0.0.1 because DFSClient_NONMAPREDUCE_-209455817 3_166 is already the current lease holder.) > One little concern though: where does that filestatus come from? It's created in the mapper just before the operation, right? As if it's created when the list of files to copy is created (which I doubt...) then the current code handles the case where the file is changed between job schedule and task execution -that would be a visible regression, which we would have to worry about. > The filestatus is created in the mapper. So i think we are good here.
