> The hdfs checksum command computes the checksum in a distributed manner, 
> which would take into account the block size. In other words, the block size 
> determines how the file will be broken up.
> Therefore itĀ can happen that the checksum command produces different outputs 
> for the exact same file only differing in the block size: 
> checksum(fileABlock1) + checksum(fileABlock2) != checksum(fileABlock1 + 
> fileABlock2)
> I suggest to add an option to the hdfs dfs -checksum command which would 
> displays the block sizeĀ along with the output, and that could also be helpful 
> in some other cases where this piece of information is needed.
