[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-518) hadoop dfs -cp foo/bar/bad-file mumble/new-file copies a file with a bad checksum

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-518?page=comments#action_12434785 ] 
            
Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-518:
-------------------------------------

Could this be related to HADOOP-320?  In other words, is the bug perhaps that 'dfs -cp' didn't copy the checksum file?

> I have a file that reliably generates a checksum error when it's read, whether by a map/reduce job as input or by a "dfs -get" command.
> However...
> if I do a "dfs -cp" from the file with the bad checksum the copy can be read in its entirety without a checksum error.
> I would consider it reasonable for the command to fail, or for the new file to be created but to also have a checksum error in the same place, but this behavior is unsettling.
