Field	Default Value	Description
`cldb.balancer.disk.max.switches.in.nodes.percentage`	10	The maximum number of containers that can be balanced in parallel by the disk balancer. The value is a percentage of the number of nodes in the system.

For example, suppose there are 500 nodes and this value is 10(%). The number of containers whose roles are balanced in parallel is (10/100)*500=50.

If selected, containers are allocated across nodes in a randomized way. 0 - indicates RoundRobin algorithm if the number of nodes is less than or equal to 100, Randomized algorithm otherwise.
`cldb.container.create.diskfull.threshold`	85	The percentage of space on a fileserver to use to classify the fileserver as FULL.

`cldb.replication.max.in.transit.containers.per.sp`	4	The maximum number of containers that can be in transit on an SP. Containers that are serving either as the source or destination of a resync operation are considered as being in ‘transit’.

`cldb.replication.tablescan.interval.sec`	2 * 60	The sleep duration (in seconds) between consecutive runs of the Replication Scanner. While the Replication Scanner bucketizes containers into different classes, the Manager thread either replicates or removes additional copies.

`cldb.volumes.default.replication`	3	The default replication factor for the CLDB volume.
`cldb.volumes.namespace.default.min.replication`	2	The default minimum replication factor. Containers with fewer copies than this value are replicated on a priority basis.

`mapr.fs.permissions.superuser`	mapr	The super user of the MapR-FS layer.
`mapr.targetversion`		The configuration variable to set the current version of mapr distribution. Failing to set this variable on an upgrade will cause alarms to be missed when all the nodes in a cluster are not at the same version of the software.
`mfs.feature.db.json.support`	1 for new MapR installations, 0 for upgraded MapR installations.	Disables (0) or enables (1) MapR streams and support in MapR-DB for JSON documents and tables.
`mfs.feature.devicefile.support`	1	Defines whether named pipes can be used over NFS.
`pernode.numcntrs.alarm.thr`	50000	The maximum number of RW containers on each node beyond which performance may not be optimal. The optimal number for RW and snapshot containers combined is 10 times the value of this parameter.
