The space is also required for volume db to perform compaction at regular interval. +This is hard to capture exact usages and free available space. So, this is required to configure minimum free space +so that datanode operation can perform without any corruption and environment being stuck and support read of data. + +This free space is used to ensure volume allocation if `required space < (volume available space - free space - reserved space)` +Any container creation and import container need ensure this constrain is met. And block write need ensure that this space is available if new blocks are written. +Note: Any issue related to ensuring free space is tracked with separate JIRA. + +# Existing configuration (before HDDS-12928) +Two configurations are provided, +- hdds.datanode.volume.min.free.space (default: 5GB) +- hdds.datanode.volume.min.free.space.percent + +1.

Going with Approach 1 Review Comment: @errose28 >No, two configs, one for min free space and one for DU reserved that each use the same value schema DU reserved is special case carried from Hadoop, for case of disk sharing by other application. This may not be required to have same value Schema. This needs user input over various disk as sharing may differ, so this schema is specialized. They are not of same type. >This is your take as developer. You need to look at this from a user's perspective. Our consistent failure to consider this perspective is why the system is difficult to use. From user perspective only, user have no knowledge how to configure the min-free-space, this is more `internal` to Ozone working. > volume mapping This might be additional config can be added later on on need basis. May be we should not add just based on intuition, as this may go to be dead config. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
