Summary: distcp error message on checksum mismatch is misleading when checksum protocol itself is different Key: HADOOP-15273 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15273 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: tools/distcp Affects Versions: 3.1.0 Reporter: Steve Loughran When using distcp without {{-skipCRC}} . If there's a checksum mismatch between src and dest store types (e.g hdfs to s3), then the error message will talk about blocksize, even when its the underlying checksum protocol itself which is the cause for failure bq. Source and target differ in block-size. Use -pb to preserve block-sizes during copy. Alternatively, skip checksum-checks altogether, using -skipCrc. (NOTE: By skipping checksums, one runs the risk of masking data-corruption during file-transfer.) IF the checksum types are fundamentally different, the error message should say so -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
