Charles Lamb commented on HADOOP-10919:
---------------------------------------
I should clarify case (1). If you are distcp'ing from the ez root or higher,
then you don't need to pre-create the EZ because all of the raw.* xattrs will
be preserved.
Given that, I'm wondering what would the purpose be for checking that the
target is an EZ?
> Copy command should preserve raw.* namespace extended attributes

> Like distcp -p (see MAPREDUCE-6007), the copy command also needs to preserve
> extended attributes in the raw.* namespace by default whenever the src and
> target are in /.reserved/raw. To not preserve raw xattrs, don't specify
> /.reserved/raw in either the src or target.
