For this purpose there is a need of a way to give the Namenode a > hint in terms of a favoredNodes parameter about the locations where the > client wants to put each block. The proposed solution is a favored nodes > parameter in the addBlock() method and in the create() file method to enable > the clients to give the hints to the NameNode about the locations of each > replica of the block. Note that this would be just a hint and finally the > NameNode would look at disk usage, datanode load etc. and decide whether it > can respect the hints or not. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
