Resolution: Fixed
> Support priority based scratch directory selection
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: IMPALA-9697
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9697
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Abhishek Rawat
> Assignee: Abhishek Rawat
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Impala 4.0

>
> The `‑‑scratch_dirs` startup flag uses the given scratch directories in a
> round robin manner. This may not always be ideal since these directories
> could come from different class of storage system volumes having different
> performance characteristics (SSD vs HDD, local storage vs network attached
> storage, etc.). Giving user an option to configure the priority of their
> scratch directories could help them optimize their workload based on their
> storage system configuration.
> One possible way could be that the user pass the priority as part of the
> `–scratch_dirs` startup flag using <directory>:<spill_priority>. The
> directories will be selected for spilling based on their priorities and if
> multiple directories have the same priority then they will be selected in a
> round robin fashion. In the below example, dir1 will be used as a spill
> victim until its full and then dir2, dir3, and dir4 will be used in a round
> robin fashion.
> {code:java}
> ‑‑scratch_dirs="dir1:200GB:0, dir2:1024GB:1, dir3:1024GB:1,
> dir4:1024GB:1"{code}
