    Description

      Copying blocks in parallel (enabled when blocks per chunk > 0) is a great DistCp improvement that can hugely speed up copying big files. 

      But its checksum validation is skipped, e.g. in `RetriableFileCopyCommand.java`

       

      if (!source.isSplit()) {
        compareCheckSums(sourceFS, source.getPath(), sourceChecksum,
            targetFS, targetPath);
      }
      

      and this could result in checksum/data mismatch without notifying developers/users (e.g. HADOOP-16049).

      I'd like to provide a patch to add the checksum validation.
