>
> Currently, when writing out a block, dfs will place one copy to a local data node, one
copy to a rack local node
> and another one to a remote node. This leads to a number of undesired properties:
> 1. The block will be rack-local to two tacks instead of three, reducing the advantage
of rack locality based scheduling by 1/3.
> 2. The Blocks of a file (especiallya large file) are unevenly distributed over the nodes:
One third will be on the local node, and two thirds on the nodes on the same rack. This may
make some nodes full much faster than others,
> increasing the need of rebalancing. Furthermore, this also make some nodes become "hot
spots" if those big
> files are popular and accessed by many applications.
