org.apache.hadoop.tools
Class DistCp

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configured
      org.apache.hadoop.tools.DistCp

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configurable, org.apache.hadoop.util.Tool

public class DistCp
extends org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configured
implements org.apache.hadoop.util.Tool

DistCp is the main driver-class for DistCpV2. For command-line use, DistCp::main() orchestrates the parsing of command-line parameters and the launch of the DistCp job. For programmatic use, a DistCp object can be constructed by specifying options (in a DistCpOptions object), and DistCp::execute() may be used to launch the copy-job. DistCp may alternatively be sub-classed to fine-tune behaviour.

Field Summary

static Random	rand
static int	SHUTDOWN_HOOK_PRIORITY Priority of the ResourceManager shutdown hook.

Constructor Summary

DistCp()
To be used with the ToolRunner.

DistCp(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration configuration, DistCpOptions inputOptions)
Public Constructor.

Method Summary

protected org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path	createInputFileListing(org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job job) Create input listing by invoking an appropriate copy listing implementation.
org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job	execute() Implements the core-execution.
protected org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path	getFileListingPath() Get default name of the copy listing file.
static void	main(String[] argv) Main function of the DistCp program.
int	run(String[] argv) Implementation of Tool::run().

Constructor Detail

DistCp

public DistCp(org.apache.hadoop.conf.Configuration configuration,
              DistCpOptions inputOptions)
       throws Exception

Public Constructor. Creates DistCp object with specified input-parameters. (E.g. source-paths, target-location, etc.)

Parameters:

inputOptions - Options (indicating source-paths, target-location.)

configuration - The Hadoop configuration against which the Copy-mapper must run.

Throws:

Exception, - on failure.

Exception

DistCp

public DistCp()

To be used with the ToolRunner. Not for public consumption.

Method Detail

run

public int run(String[] argv)

Implementation of Tool::run(). Orchestrates the copy of source file(s) to target location, by: 1. Creating a list of files to be copied to target. 2. Launching a Map-only job to copy the files. (Delegates to execute().)

Specified by:

run in interface org.apache.hadoop.util.Tool

Parameters:

argv - List of arguments passed to DistCp, from the ToolRunner.

Returns:

On success, it returns 0. Else, -1.

execute

public org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job execute()
                                        throws Exception

Implements the core-execution. Creates the file-list for copy, and launches the Hadoop-job, to do the copy.

Returns:

Job handle

Throws:

Exception, - on failure.

Exception

createInputFileListing

protected org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path createInputFileListing(org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job job)
                                                    throws IOException

Create input listing by invoking an appropriate copy listing implementation. Also add delegation tokens for each path to job's credential store

Parameters:

job - - Handle to job

Returns:

Returns the path where the copy listing is created

Throws:

IOException - - If any

getFileListingPath

protected org.apache.hadoop.fs.Path getFileListingPath()
                                                throws IOException

Get default name of the copy listing file. Use the meta folder to create the copy listing file

Returns:

- Path where the copy listing file has to be saved

Throws:

IOException - - Exception if any

main

public static void main(String[] argv)

Main function of the DistCp program. Parses the input arguments (via OptionsParser), and invokes the DistCp::run() method, via the ToolRunner.

Parameters:

argv - Command-line arguments sent to DistCp.
