> In a Hadoop cluster, number of nodes on a rack could be different. For
> example, we have 50 Datanodes in all and 15 datanodes per rack, it would
> remain 5 nodes on the last rack. In this situation, we find that storage
> usage on the last 5 nodes would be much higher than other nodes.
> With the default blockplacement policy, for each block, the first
> replication has the same probability to write to each datanode, but the
> probability for the 2nd/3rd replication to write to the last 5 nodes would
> much higher than to other nodes.
> Consider we write 50 blocks to such 50 datanodes. The first rep of 100 block
> would distirbuted to 50 node equally. The 2rd rep of blocks which the 1st rep
> is on rack1(15 reps) would send equally to other 35 nodes and each nodes
> receive 0.428 rep. So does blocks on rack2 and rack3. As a result, node on
> rack4(5 nodes) would receive 1.29 replications in all, while other node would
> receive 0.97 reps.
> ||-||Rack1(15 nodes)||Rack2(15 nodes)||Rack3(15 nodes)||Rack4(5 nodes)||
> |From rack1|-|15/35=0.43|0.43|0.43|
> |From rack2|0.43|-|0.43|0.43|
> |From rack3|0.43|0.43|-|0.43|
> |From rack4|5/45=0.11|0.11|0.11|-|
> |Total|0.97|0.97|0.97|1.29|
