Thomas Graves created HADOOP-9514: ------------------------------------- Summary: Hadoop CLI's have inconsistent usages Key: HADOOP-9514 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9514 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: scripts Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha, 3.0.0 Reporter: Thomas Graves
Many of the hadoop command line interfaces (yarn/mapred/hdfs/hadoop) and subcommands have inconsistent usages, in many cases have options that don't apply (-archives/-files/-jt), and due to the usage of GenericOptionsParser print the usage as "bin/hadoop command [genericOptions] [commandOptions]" even though you were running yarn or hdfs commands. This makes for a bad user experience and its confusing as to what options are really available and how to use them. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
