setting a proper threshold
I plan to setup HDFS on 20 servers. I plan on using /fs for my data. I
want /fs to have atleast 20% free therefore I don't want this
filesystem to be filled up with hdfs data. Is there a way to restrict
hadoop so it does not write here if the filesystem is over 80%?
TIA

If you mean filesystem quotas I don't have root access

Can't you just set quotas for the user you run HDFS as?
