> With the new feature added in HDFS-1804 (Add a new block-volume device
> choosing policy that looks at free space), it'd be useful to have a WARN log
> if the operator sets
> dfs.datanode.fsdataset.volume.choosing.balanced-space-preference-percent to a
> value greater than 1.0. This might happen if the operator mistakenly assumes
> that this setting takes in a percentage number from 0.0-100.0, while the
> setting actually takes a range 0.0-1.0.
> Also, it'd be useful to WARN in the case that value is set below 0.5, which
> would cause disks with less free space to get more block allocations.
