[jira] [Comment Edited] (HADOOP-14254) Add a Distcp option to
preserve Erasure Coding attributes
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14254?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15947559#comment-15947559 ]

I think this new option will require HDFS-10996, so I do not have a patch to implement it. But here's a test to demonstrate my idea, which currently fails in trunk because of lack of such capability.

> Currently Distcp does not preserve the erasure coding attributes properly. I propose we add a "-pe" switch to ensure erasure coded files at source are copied as erasure coded files at destination.
> For example, if the src cluster has the following directories and files that are copied to dest cluster
> hdfs://src/ root directory is replicated
> hdfs://src/foo erasure code enabled directory
> hdfs://src/foo/bar erasure coded file
> after distcp, hdfs://dest/foo and hdfs://dest/foo/bar will not be erasure coded.
> It may be useful to add such capability. One potential use is for disaster recovery. The other use is for out-of-place cluster upgrade.
