Out of this on disk5 I have my hadoop.tmp.dir configured. I see that on this disk I have huge IO when I run my jobs compared to other disks. Can you guide my to the standards to follow so that this IO can be distributed across to other disks as well. What should be the standard around setting up the hadoop.tmp.dir parameter. Any help would be highly appreciated. below is IO while I am running a huge job.
