At what load you are running the cluster? Looks NN not able to choose the targets for block.
When choosing the targets NN will check many conditions like what is the thread count in DNs and allocated space for the node, ...etc. If NN finds any of the nodes in that situation it will not choose the targets. That logs were debug logs. If you are getting this error frequently, you can just enable the debug log and check the reason once.
