Scott Chen updated MAPREDUCE-1831:
----------------------------------

        Summary: Delete the co-located replicas when raiding file  (was: Delete 
the replica on the most concentrated node when raiding file)
    Description: 
In raid, it is good to have the blocks on the same stripe located on different 
machine.
This way when one machine is down, it does not broke two blocks on the stripe.
By doing this, we can decrease the block error probability in raid from O(p^3) 
to O(p^4) which can be a hugh improvement.

One way to do this is that we can add a new BlockPlacementPolicy which deletes 
the replicas that are co-located.
So when raiding the file, we can make the remaining replicas live on different 
machines.
