Kihwal Lee commented on HDFS-11742:
-----------------------------------

Setting HDFS-11377 as a dependency. In most cases, the proposed change will 
make it unnecessary, but it is still needed the case where the number of 
targets is bigger than max number of mover threads. In this case, it won't be 
possible to serve all targets even by allocating only one thread per target.

> Improve balancer usability after HDFS-8188

> We ran 2.8 balancer with HDFS-8818 on a 280-node and a 2,400-node cluster. In 
> both cases, it would hang forever after two iterations. The two iterations 
> were also moving things at a significantly lower rate. The hang itself is 
> fixed by HDFS-11377, but the design limitation remains, so the balancer 
> throughput ends up actually lower.
> Instead of reverting HDFS-8188 as originally suggested, I am making a small 
> change to make it less error prone and more usable.
