The max is 3, so everything can go to one rack. > - Two replicas on two or more racks. The max is 2, both replicas can end up > in the same rack. > {{BlockManager#isNeededReplication()}} fixes this after block/file is closed > because {{blockHasEnoughRacks()}} will return fail. This is not only extra > work, but also can break the favored nodes feature. > When there are two racks and two favored nodes are specified in the same > rack, NN may allocate the third replica on a node in the same rack, because > {{maxNodesPerRack}} is 3. When closing the file, NN moves a block to the > other rack. There is 66% chance that a favored node is moved. If > {{maxNodesPerRack}} was 2, this would not happen. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
