Directory is not copying to dse fs

Question

I am trying to copy folder from server to dse fs but it is gettng saved as file

dse fs "put file:/home/dir /"

Getting this error

IOException: is a directory

Is there any way to copy directory to dse filesystem

Answer 1

You need to use the dse fs "cp -R file://.... /" instead of put, but the -R flag was added only DSE 6.7. If you're on lower versions, then you'll need to write a simple script that will walk through directory & upload individual files.

another workaround, if you have a single level of files, you can use following commands:

dse fs "mkdir dir" "cp file://`pwd`/dir/* /dir/"
