-------------------------------------

HI [~aw],

Thanks for your work on this. I have a question about running balancer as 
daemon. User used to run the balancer at command line, and wait for it to 
finish (it finishes when balancing criteria is satisfied). Now it can be run as 
a daemon, does it mean the balancer daemon continues to monitor the HDFS state 
and automatically start the balancing process when detecting that the balancing 
criteria is not satisfied? thanks.

> * daemon isn't set to true in hdfs to enable daemonization
> * start-balancer script has usage instead of hadoop_usage
