dfs mv command differs from POSIX standards
-------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2192
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2192
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.15.1, 0.16.0
            Reporter: Mukund Madhugiri
             Fix For: 0.16.0


Assuming the dfs commands follow POSIX standards, there are some problems with 
the DFS mv command. I compared the DFS output with that of RHEL 4u5

1. mv a file:
Linux: No output
DFS: Renamed /testarea/hadoop-site.xml to test

2. mv a file/directory that does not exist. The DFS file does not exist, but 
the output says it renamed the file:
Linux: mv: cannot stat `testarea/one': No such file or directory
DFS: mv: Rename failed /testarea/one

3. mv a directory to another directory:
Linux: No output
DFS: Renamed /testarea to testarea2
