Sushanth Sowmyan created HIVE-16918: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Skip ReplCopyTask distcp for _metadata copying. Also enable -pb for distcp Key: HIVE-16918 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-16918 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: repl Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan Assignee: Sushanth Sowmyan With HIVE-16686, we switched ReplCopyTask to always use a privileged DistCp. This, however, is incorrect for copying _metadata generated from a temporary scratch directory to hdfs. We need to change that so that routes to using a regular CopyTask. Also, in the spirit of following up HIVE-16686, we missed adding "-pb" as a default for invocations of distcp from hive. Adding that in. This would not be necessary if HADOOP-8143 had made it in, but till it doesn't go in, we need it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
