> {quote}
> For rack fault-tolerance, it is also important to have at least as many racks 
> as the configured EC stripe width. For EC policy RS (6,3), this means 
> minimally 9 racks, and ideally 10 or 11 to handle planned and unplanned 
> outages. For clusters with fewer racks than the stripe width, HDFS cannot 
> maintain rack fault-tolerance, but will still attempt to spread a striped 
> file across multiple nodes to preserve node-level fault-tolerance.
> {quote}
> Theoretical minimum is 3 racks, and ideally 9 or more, so the document should 
> be updated.
> (I didn't check timestamps, but this is probably due to 
> {{BlockPlacementPolicyRackFaultTolerant}} isn't completely done when 
> HDFS-9088 introduced this doc. Later there's also examples in 
> {{TestErasureCodingMultipleRacks}} to test this explicitly.)
