One node has more hdfs blocks than others? Is it a problem? Are you coming close to running out of disk space? If you look in namenode log, what happens when it tries to rebalance blocks? You could run the hdfs balancer to move blocks but that will mess w/ hbase locality. You have too many regions on your regionservers. Can you add more nodes? Do you need that many tables? Drop those you don't need. And yes, you should upgrade (smile). St.Ack
