Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-12548:
-------------------------------------------
bq. what would you like to see for the example?
I literally want to see step-by-step instructions. "Given this access key and
secret, this is how you do a distcp with s3 and hdfs using the hadoop commands
and a credential file." I think the only end user documentation we have on
this is just in the hadoop command reference. It only talks about manipulating
a credential file. If this was a spelling bee, that'd be the definition. Now
I'm asking the judge to use it in sentence. ;)
FWIW: based upon my inbox just in the past 12 hours or so, I'm clearly not the
only support/ops-type person who has no clue how to actually use this stuff.
