Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HDFS-6133:
-------------------------------------------
We should also add a configuration to enable/disable this feature since block
pinning may not be preferable for some deployment.
BTW, just heard from [~cnauroth] that Windows does not support sticky bit. Is
there some other ways to implement block pinning? Use file name?
> Make Balancer support exclude specified path

> If getBlocks could exclude blocks belongs to files which have specific path
> prefix, like "/hbase", then we can run Balancer without destroying
