%b is actually printing the size of a file in bytes, while in help it stats filesize in blocks. hdfs dfs -help stat -stat [format] <path> ... : Print statistics about the file/directory at <path> in the specified format. Format accepts filesize in blocks (%b), type (%F), group name of owner (%g), name (%n), block size (%o), replication (%r), user name of owner (%u), modification date (%y, %Y). %y shows UTC date as "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" and %Y shows milliseconds since January 1, 1970 UTC. If the format is not specified, %y is used by default. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
