Hi, Apologies for cross-posting.
We're in the process of migrating data from an Apache Hadoop 0.20.203.0 cluster to a 0.22.0 cluster using distcp with a hftp source and hdfs dest as described in the manual. During the copy a handful of the following cryptic IOExceptions occured and the job finally failed completely. Almost 20GB of data was not copied at all. 11/12/18 22:50:53 INFO mapreduce.Job: Task Id : attempt_201112181848_0007_m_000097_0, Status : FAILED java.io.IOException: Copied: 251 Skipped: 0 Failed: 16 at org.apache.hadoop.tools.DistCp$CopyFilesMapper.close(DistCp.java:694) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:61) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runOldMapper(MapTask.java:389) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:322) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child$4.run(Child.java:223) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:396) at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1153) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.Child.main(Child.java:217) The files being copied do not contain any fancy filenames and are all map or sequence files with an occasional _SUCCESS file here and there. The cryptic stack trace is similar to some CDH issue [1] which is still open. Any thoughts? [1]: https://issues.cloudera.org/browse/DISTRO-347 Thanks
