            Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze


fs -cp will fail if the destination parent directory does not exist.
{code}
$hadoop fs -cp /a.sh /dst/non-existing/a.sh
cp: `/dst/non-existing/a.sh': No such file or directory
{code}

$hadoop distcp /a.sh /dst/non-existing/a.sh
...
$hadoop fs -ls /dst/non-existing
