Vijay resolved SPARK-4402.
--------------------------
    Resolution: Not a Problem

> Output path validation of an action statement resulting in runtime exception
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-4402
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4402
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Wish
>            Reporter: Vijay
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Output path validation is happening at the time of statement execution as a 
> part of lazyevolution of action statement. But if the path already exists 
> then it throws a runtime exception. Hence all the processing completed till 
> that point is lost which results in resource wastage (processing time and CPU 
> usage).
> If this I/O related validation is done before the RDD action operations then 
> this runtime exception can be avoided.
> I believe similar validation/ feature is implemented in hadoop also.
> Example:
> SchemaRDD.saveAsTextFile() evaluated the path during runtime
