The detailed explanations isn't available in much English based sites, most of them are just rehas of each others.(Didn't find googlebooks) so I had to use these sites.

I don’t claim technical knowledge in this area but I think you may be misinterpreting what has been written.

The reference to ‘chunk creation’ appears to apply to the initial creation of chunks. If this fails on some chunkservers, then this makes storage reclamation (at some later time) more difficult. So the reclamation process needs to take this into account.
