I checked on CDH 5.2 and it was the same as CDH4. The output you see was introduced in CDH 5.3, the jira being HADOOP-6857. The second column is supposed to calculate the raw disk usage of the file/directory.   So if a file is 42 bytes, it correctly shows (file size) * (replication factor of file)    $ hadoop fs -du /hbase/hbase.id 42  126  /hbase/hbase.id   However it seems incorrect for directories as column 2 shows (theoretical block size) * (replication factor of file) * (number of files in directory)   $ hadoop fs -du -h /hbase/WALs 0    0      /hbase/WALs/hregion-67213513 83   384 M  /hbase/WALs/server54-2.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548533 166  768 M  /hbase/WALs/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548804 83   384 M  /hbase/WALs/server54-4.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434547067 $ hadoop fs -ls -R /hbase/WALs/server54-2.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548533 -rw-r--r--   3 hbase hbase         83 2015-05-12 18:42 /hbase/WALs/server54-2.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548533/server54-2.abc.cloudera.com%2C22101%2C1431434548533.default.1431481363257 $ hadoop fs -ls -R /hbase/WALs/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548804 -rw-r--r--   3 hbase hbase         83 2015-05-12 19:42 /hbase/WALs/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548804/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com%2C22101%2C1431434548804..meta.1431484974652.meta -rw-r--r--   3 hbase hbase         83 2015-05-12 19:42 /hbase/WALs/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com,22101,1431434548804/server54-3.abc.cloudera.com%2C22101%2C1431434548804.default.1431484963607   ...
