Yiqun Lin updated HDFS-13573:
-----------------------------
    Description: 
Current rule of default block placement policy:
{quote}The replica placement strategy is that if the writer is on a datanode,
 the 1st replica is placed on the local machine,
 otherwise a random datanode. The 2nd replica is placed on a datanode
 that is on a different rack. The 3rd replica is placed on a datanode
 which is on a different node of the rack as the second replica.
{quote}
*if the writer is on a datanode, the 1st replica is placed on the local 
machine*, actually this can be decided by the hdfs client. The client can pass 
{{CreateFlag#NO_LOCAL_WRITE}} that request to not put a block replica on the 
local datanode. But subsequent replicas will still follow default block 
placement policy.
