Marton Elek commented on HDDS-4656:
-----------------------------------

Thanks to open this issue [~maobaolong]. I agree, these are important goals. 
Some comments:

> When new allocate container request coming, SCM should better to choose the 
> datanodes in low usage, if not, the performance will getting pool.

It seems to be an improved placement policy, not a separated service, right?

> For read request, the existing datanodes stored lots of blocks, so they are 
> responsible for serving the read request and supply the data stream service, 
> meanwhile, the new coming datanodes can help nothing.

It's a good question. There were some thoughts earlier about improving the 
ReplicationManager (closed clontainer replication) to handle smarter strategies 
and initiate container moves (re-replication + delete) just for better 
placement. But Nanda may have better memories. (Not the only way to do it, just 
sharing some earlier thoughts)

> Add a container balancer tool or service for SCM

> When an existing Ozone cluster is nearly full, we have to add more datanodes 
> into the Ozone cluster, but there are two issue we must face.
> - When new allocate container request coming, SCM should better to choose the 
> datanodes in low usage, if not, the performance will getting pool.
> - For read request, the existing datanodes stored lots of blocks, so they are 
> responsible for serving the read request and supply the data stream service, 
> meanwhile, the new coming datanodes can help nothing.
> If we have a balancer tool just like hdfs balancer, we can move the block or 
> container from some high usage datanodes to low, I think this is one of 
> necessary tools for Ozone.
