> The block placement policy calls 
> {{DatanodeDescriptor#getRemaining(StorageType}}}} to check whether the block 
> is going to fit. Since the method is adding up all remaining spaces, namenode 
> can allocate a new block on a full node. This causes pipeline construction 
> failure and {{abandonBlock}}. If the cluster is nearly full, the client might 
> hit this multiple times and the write can fail permanently.
