Ah, that is a javadoc typo. Has been fixed in HADOOP-6114.

Yes, it will return in bytes.
NN side code where it is summing the bytes
for(Block blk : blocks) {
bytes += blk.getNumBytes();
}

I read that getLen returns the length in Blocks - and I wrong and does it
return the length in bytes
the code I see in org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileStatus says
/*
* @return the length of this file, in blocks
*/
public long getLen() {
return length;
}

You need to use:
http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/FileStatus.html#getLen()
via
http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/FileSystem.html#getFileStatus(org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path)

FileSystem.getLength(Path path) is deprecated
getFileStatus(Path path) .getLen(String path) seems to return the path in
Blocks whereas I want it in bytes
