Rakesh R commented on HDFS-7116: -------------------------------- *Initial design thoughts:* Case-1) Datanode will inform Namenode about the {{dfs.datanode.balance.bandwidthPerSec}} configured value through the heartbeat. Initially I thought of updating Namenode only once during the DatanodeRegistration process, but on a second thought I decided to send it through heartbeat for consistency. On receiving the heartbeat, Namenode HeartbeatManager will update the bandwidth value in {{DatanodeInfo#bandwidth }} field. Then continue to the existing logic of checking a new bandwidth value from admin. Here, this check will be like, {code} if ( DatanodeInfo#newBalancerBandwidth > 0 && DatanodeInfo#newBalancerBandwidth != DatanodeInfo#bandwidth ) {code} then sent UPDATE_BANDWIDTH command to Datanode. Case-2) Administrator sends {{-setBalancerBandwidth}} command. Now, this information will be keeping in a new field {{newBalancerBandwidth}} in the {{DatanodeInfo}} object. Could you please review the algorithm and appreciate review comments.
