Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-3873:
------------------------------------------------
I don't plan to implement "-sync" or file deletion in this issue. So the
answer for your question is: "no, the file will be remained in the
destination." I will file another issue for that. Sorry for not being clear.
> DistCp should have an option for limiting the number of files/bytes being

> A single DistCp command may potentially copies a huge number of files/bytes.
> In such case, DistCp will run a long time and there is no way stop it nicely.
> It would be good if DistCp have an option to limit the number of files/bytes
> being copied. Once the limit is reached, DistCp will terminate and return
> success. All files copied are guaranteed to be good and there is no
> partially copied file.
