------------------------------------
Resolving as duplicated of HDFS-13283: that JIRA provides everything that
[^HDFS-13378_v1.diff] does.
> Add the option to set the du reserve by percent on datanode

> Key: HDFS-13378
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-13378
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: datanode
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Reporter: Gang Xie
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: HDFS-13378_v1.diff

> Recently, we could event we reserved some space(dfs.datanode.du.reserved),
> this disk still gets full, in turn, the performance is downgraded. After some
> test, we found that we need consider the space used by ext4 (we use ext4 as
> local fs). I.E, if the datanode reports there is 8T space available, you
> could not write 8T data actually. About %4-%5 space is used for the ext4
> metadata. The following is the metrics of ext4 meta usage in disks with
> different capacity (GB, reserved block for root is set to 1%, 120MB blocks):
> |*FileSystem Capacity*|*Ext4 Data*|*Ex4 metadata*|*Metadata Ratio*|
> |3666|3629|37|0.0101|
> |7392|7318|74|0.0100|
> |733|725|8|0.0109|
>
> So, it seems that the ext4 most likely has the same meta data ratio with the
> same about data and dir tree structure.
>
> On the other hand, in our data center, there are several disk types with
> different capacity. It's inefficient to set a absolute value for each
> datanode according to the disk capacity. To us, it makes sense to set the
> reservation with a ratio since we always use ext4 as the local fs. I think
> it's the same case for most of other data center.
>
> Our idea is to leave the default behavior unchanged. User could still use
> dfs.datanode.du.reserved to set the reservation, but switch to use a ratio if
> some other specified param is set.
