Mohammad Mustaqeem created HDFS-4664:
----------------------------------------
Summary: HDFS for heterogeneous environment
Key: HDFS-4664
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4664
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: balancer
Affects Versions: 0.20.2
Environment: Ubuntu Linux, Institutional lab
Reporter: Mohammad Mustaqeem
I want to use HDFS for storing the files in the institutional labs.
Here the point is to be noted that all the nodes in the labs are not of same
type that is some nodes stay on for longer duration while some for small
duration.
In addition to this all the labs are not same means that some lab has UPS
facility and some has more nodes.
If I consider the lab as rack, then we should not choose the racks and node
randomly in replica placement.
We should give more priority to those nodes that stay on for longer duration
and to those lab which has lab facility and has more system.
