Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-14710:
-----------------------------------------

[~kdzhao]:
1: distcp now has a -direct option which avoids the copy
2. you need to enable path-style access and switch back to the v1 list API (there are options for those)

bq. .if I use "s3a://xyz" instead (no back slash at the end), then the error is like: ls: 's3a://xyz': No such file or directory.

that's an irritating feature of the FS shell. If you don't have any path in the URL, it says "your home directory", and so unless there's a /user/$myname path, 404. Create the path or use trailing / entries. Nothing we can do to fix. I've thought about making the home dir of a bucket "/", but that might break existing things. Sorry. it annoys us all. repeatedly
