      When we visit hdfs web console ie localhost:50070, in the statistics there is one information called non-dfs used. what exactly is non dfs used ? what type of data is stored in this section ?

      Non DFS used is calculated using following formula

      NonDFSU used = Configured Capacity - DFS Used - DFS Remaining

      All these parameters are also displayed in the HDFSweb console

      The Non-DFS Used value does not represent the true disk space usage by non Hadoop files instead of its an indicative value which is derived using the given formula.
