Yes, all the files passed must pre-exist. In this case, you would need to run something as follows:
curl -i -X POST "http://HOST/webhdfs/v1/PATH_TO_YOUR_HDFS_FOLDER/part-01-000000-000?user.name=hadoop&op=CONCAT&sources=PATH_TO_YOUR_HDFS_FOLDER/part-02-000000-000,PATH_TO_YOUR_HDFS_FOLDER/part-04-000000-000" Where these 3 files would be concatenated into PATH_TO_YOUR_HDFS_FOLDER/part-01-000000-000 file. Note that this will only work if the file sizes are exact multiples of "dfs.block.size". If not, you may get another error. > On 27 Jul 2017, at 10:06, Cinyoung Hur <cinyoung....@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, Wellington > > All the source parts are: > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 2.43 KB 2 32 MB > part-01-000000-000 > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 21.14 MB 2 32 MB > part-02-000000-000 > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 22.1 MB 2 32 MB > part-04-000000-000 > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 22.29 MB 2 32 MB > part-05-000000-000 > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 22.29 MB 2 32 MB > part-06-000000-000 > -rw-r--r-- hadoop supergroup 22.56 MB 2 32 MB > part-07-000000-000 > > > I got this exception.
