Moving files and user files into an newly created encrypted hdfs folders

avatar

We have been using our cluster and now it is time to setup the encryption zones. 

This has brought up two issues.

  1. Files need to be copied from nonencrypted folders to encrypted folders. Here using hdfs dfs -cp fails, hadoop distcp -skipcrccheck -update fails, and hadoop distcp fails . How can files be copied into the newly created encrypted zones. 
  2. The hdfs user folder is populated with the admin our users and service users such as hdfs, hive, hue, impala, oozie, spark as well regular user directories. How should this folder be encrypted to not interfere with the services using it.
