In hadoop 0.17 & 0.18 the behavior of "hadoop dfs -mv <invalid src dir>/* <target dir>" is as shown below.

$ hadoop dfs -mv /user/dfsload/does-not-exist/* /user/dfsload/.Trash
hadoop: No match.
$ echo $?

Ramesh, in the command above, * should be escaped.  Otherwise, bash will expend it.  The message "hadoop: No match" was printed by bash but not hadoop.

I tested -mv with 0.18.  It also has the same behavior.

bash-3.2$ ./bin/hadoop version
Hadoop 0.18.4-dev
