vaibhav beriwala commented on HADOOP-13402: ------------------------------------------- Thanks for the detailed clarification [~ste...@apache.org] :). > S3A should allow renaming to a pre-existing destination directory to move the > source path under that directory, similar to HDFS. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-13402 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13402 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: fs/s3 > Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan > Priority: Minor > > In HDFS, a rename to a destination path that is a pre-existing directory is > interpreted as moving the source path relative to that pre-existing > directory. In S3A, this operation currently fails (does nothing and returns > {{false}}), unless that destination directory is empty. This issue proposes > to change S3A to allow this behavior, so that it more closely matches the > semantics of HDFS and other file systems. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
