How to copy a file into HDFS with a different block size to that of existing block size configuration?
Answer Posted / Shamee Ahmad
To copy a file into HDFS with a different block size, you can use the `-D dfs.blocksize` command line option with the `hadoop cp` or `hadoop fs -copyFromLocal` commands. Here's an example:
```bash
hadoop fs -copyFromLocal /local/path/to/file hdfs://namenode:port/hdfs/destination-path -D dfs.blocksize=<custom-block-size>
```
Replace `<custom-block-size>` with the desired block size in bytes, and update the path components accordingly.
