cmd Hadoop fs -put documentation, in most of the version, it was given that source should be file. https://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.5.1/hadoop-project-dist/hadoop-common/FileSystemShell.html#put Usage: hdfs dfs -put <localsrc> ... <dst> Copy single src, or multiple srcs from local file system to the destination file system. Also reads input from stdin and writes to destination file system. hdfs dfs -put localfile /user/hadoop/hadoopfile hdfs dfs -put localfile1 localfile2 /user/hadoop/hadoopdir hdfs dfs -put localfile hdfs://nn.example.com/hadoop/hadoopfile hdfs dfs -put - hdfs://nn.example.com/hadoop/hadoopfile Reads the input from stdin. I have tested with the directory as a source and it worked fine. I think the documentation need to updated. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
