And I have both but have had disk full problems.  I can't be sure right now
whether this occurred under 14.4 or 15.1, but I think it was 15.1.

In any case, new file creation from a non-datanode host is definitely not
well balanced and will lead to disk full conditions if you have dramatically
different sized partitions available on the different datanodes.  Also, if
you have a small and a large partition available on a single node, the small
partition will fill up and cause corruption.  I had to go to single
partitions on all nodes to avoid this.

<property>
  <name>dfs.datanode.du.reserved</name>
  <!--  10 GB -->
  <value> 10000000000 </value>
  <description>Reserved space in bytes. Always leave this much space free
for non dfs use  </description>
</property>

<property>
  <name>dfs.datanode.du.pct</name>
  <value>0.9f</value>
  <description>When calculating remaining space, only use this percentage of
the real available space
  </description>
</property>
