Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-7613: --------------------------------- Thanks for the feedback [~djp] and sorry about getting to this late. bq. not sure if BlockPlacementPolicyDefault can meet all cases that BlockPlacementPolicyEC should be there. As discussed under HDFS-7891, EC has a higher requirement on rack-aware distribution, which {{BlockPlacementPolicyDefault}} doesn't quite satisfy. bq. Also, I see BlockPlacementPolicyEC support rack layer only, do we have plan to support NodeGroup layer as well? It would be great to make EC can be suitable for broader scenarios. [~walter.k.su] might be able to provide more insights. ASAIK we haven't implemented logic for NodeGroup yet. I think it will be an interesting addition. Right now we are still focusing on the EC-specific algorithm, and will revisit the multi-policy proposal a little later. > Block placement policy for erasure coding groups > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HDFS-7613 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7613 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Zhe Zhang > Assignee: Walter Su > Attachments: HDFS-7613.001.patch > > > Blocks in an erasure coding group should be placed in different failure > domains -- different DataNodes at the minimum, and different racks ideally. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
