bq. By wrong path, are you saying that .../_distcp_tmp_dvml74/3169 and /user/.../3169 are distinct?
Yes, they are distinct.

bq. DistCp first copies src to tmp and then rename tmp to dst. The file it deleting is dst but not tmp.
/user/.../3169 is not dst. It is a different file. The user is correct but the distcp command specified a different dst directory than /user.

> we run distcp between two clusters running 0.17.2 using hdfs.
> As long as one of the tasks fails after opening a file for writing (which typically always happens), subsequent retries will always fail with the following exception (we did not see this with 0.16.3, seems to be a regression):
