On a Oracle Big Data Appliance HDFS Cluster will not start due to space issues on some of the nodes

On some nodes, CDH services (such as NodeManager) wont start and fails with below error since one of the u* partition is full

# df -k /u12
Filesystem 1K-blocks        Used        Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdl1   2883715292 2877855916 4           100% /u12

On some nodes dfsadmin report indicates that DFS is 100% full and Datanode won't start.   For example:

Name:<HOSTNAME12> (<HOSTNAME12>.<DOMAIN>)
Hostname: <HOSTNAME12>.<DOMAIN>
Decommission Status : Normal
Configured Capacity: 0 (0 B)
DFS Used: 0 (0 B)
Non DFS Used: 0 (0 B)
DFS Remaining: 0 (0 B)
DFS Used%: 100.00%
DFS Remaining%: 0.00%
