Antony Mayi created HADOOP-12379: ------------------------------------ Summary: distcp of a dir tree preserves replication factor where it shouldn't Key: HADOOP-12379 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12379 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: util Affects Versions: 2.6.0 Reporter: Antony Mayi
when running distcp (without -p r) of a directory tree with file replication factor being 3 from a cluster to another cluster with different default file replication factor (ie 1) it incorrectly preserves the replication factor of the files (appears on target cluster replicated 3 times instead of just once). This occurs only when distcp-ing a dir tree. When doing single file the file appears with expected replication factor (1). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
