                 Key: HADOOP-2791
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2791
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
             Fix For: 0.17.0


It would be very useful to have a command that we could give a hdfs directory 
to, that would use fsck to find the block locations of the data files in that 
directory and group them by host and display the distribution graphically. We 
did this by hand and it was very for finding a skewed distribution that was 
causing performance problems. The tool should also be able to group by rack id 
and generate a similar plot.
