 ### Configuration
 
 * **dfs.storage.policy.enabled** - for enabling/disabling the storage policy 
feature. The default value is `true`.
+* **dfs.datanode.data.dir** - on each data node, the comma-separated storage 
locations should be tagged with their storage types. This allows storage 
policies to place the blocks on different storage types according to policy. 
For example:
+
+    1.  A datanode storage location /grid/dn/disk0 on DISK should be 
configured with `[DISK]file:///grid/dn/disk0`
+    2.  A datanode storage location /grid/dn/ssd0 on SSD can should configured 
with `[SSD]file:///grid/dn/ssd0`
+    3.  A datanode storage location /grid/dn/archive0 on ARCHIVE should be 
configured with `[ARCHIVE]file:///grid/dn/archive0`
+    4.  A datanode storage location /grid/dn/ram0 on RAM_DISK should be 
configured with `[RAM_DISK]file:///grid/dn/ram0`
+
+    The default storage type of a datanode storage location will be DISK if it 
does not have a storage type tagged explicitly.
