[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-7478) 0-byte files retained in the dfs while the FSshell -put is unsuccessful

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7478?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13178298#comment-13178298 ] 

Harsh J commented on HADOOP-7478:
---------------------------------

Exec'ing {{fs -put}} should return back a proper code in trunk, I think, given Daryn's work on the whole revamp.

I'd argue that this behavior is OK, since it indicates that the file's inode was successfully created, but none of the writing of bytes passed.

> The process of putting file into dfs is approximately as follows:
> 1) create a file in the dfs
> 2) copy from one stream to the file
> But the problem is that the file is still retained in the dfs when the process 2) is terminated abnormally with unexpected exceptions,such as there is no DataNode alive.
