---------------------------------

             Summary: Abort the balancer if an upgrade is in progress
                 Key: HDFS-8549
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8549
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: balancer & mover
    Affects Versions: 2.7.0
            Reporter: Andrew Wang
            Assignee: Andrew Wang


Running the balancer during an ongoing upgrade has a negative affect, since DNs 
do not actually delete blocks. This means the balancer is making lots of extra 
replicas and not actually reducing the disk utilization of over-utilized nodes.
