Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-6133:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks for working on this. The pinning idea is very interesting!
A replica is pinned only if it is stored in a favored node. In a write
pipeline, it could possibly be some datanodes are favored nodes but some are
not. So the new parameters in DataTransferProtocol.writeBlock should be
similar to storageType and targetStorageTypes, i.e. a new pinning parameter to
the next datanodes and another new parameter targetPinnings for the downstream
datanodes.
{code}
public void writeBlock(final ExtendedBlock blk,
final StorageType storageType,
+ final boolean pinning,
final Token<BlockTokenIdentifier> blockToken,
final String clientName,
final DatanodeInfo[] targets,
final StorageType[] targetStorageTypes,
+ final boolean[] targetPinnings,
final DatanodeInfo source,
final BlockConstructionStage stage,
final int pipelineSize,
{code}

> Currently, run Balancer will destroying Regionserver's data locality.
> If getBlocks could exclude blocks belongs to files which have specific path
> prefix, like "/hbase", then we can run Balancer without destroying
> Regionserver's data locality.
