Summary: Separate Balancer specific logic form Dispatcher Key: HDFS-6861 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6861 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: balancer Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze Assignee: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze In order to balance datanode storage utilization of a cluster, Balancer (1) classifies datanodes into different groups (overUtilized, aboveAvgUtilized, belowAvgUtilized and underUtilized), (2) chooses source and target datanode pairs and (3) chooses blocks to move. Some of these logic are in Dispatcher. It is better to separate them out. This JIRA is a further work of HDFS-6828. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
