[jira] Created: (HADOOP-26) DFS node choice doesn't take available space into account effectively

DFS node choice doesn't take available space into account effectively
---------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: HADOOP-26
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-26
     Project: Hadoop
        Type: Bug
  Components: dfs  
    Reporter: Mike Cafarella
 Assigned to: Mike Cafarella 



  We used to have node-allocation be sensitive to available disk space.  It turned out that
this was a little accident-prone and hard to debug on then-available machines, so I removed it.

  DFS is mature enough now that this needs to come back and work properly.  A node with less
than X bytes should never accept a new block for allocation.

[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-26) DFS node choice doesn't take available space into account effectively

Mike Cafarella commented on HADOOP-26:
--------------------------------------


  OK, the above comment is a little misleading.

  We used to have a difference space-management system in place, which would set
certain nodes off-limits if they didn't have enough space.  Now we choose nodes probabilistically,
with more weight given to nodes with more space.

  That's probably a little too cute than is necessary.  We should just have hard limits on how
much a given node will take before it complains and never receives further node allocations.
