Hi Durai,

Rebalancing will only happen when the forest configuration changes. So you 
start off with two forests, inserts are spread according to the assignment 
policy. Then you add another forest (on a different, new node in the cluster 
for instance), and buckets are re-arranged across the forests, and rebalancing 
kicks in to move over the relocated buckets to their new forests. It is not 
(directly) related to ingest or removal of documents.

There is no need to turn off rebalancing once it has settled down, and you are 
not planning forest changes. I would also recommend against that, unless you 
have a clear reason to temporarily want to interrupt that..

Kind regards,
Geert

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] Rebalancer

Dear all,

I have disabled the rebalance as shown below, since the rebalancing is resource 
consuming and slows down the application. With the below configuration, will 
the new inserts into the database use bucket assignment policy?

Or should the rebalance be enabled even for the new inserts?


rebalancer enable

true    false
Enable automatic rebalancing after configuration changes.


rebalancer throttle


Larger numbers mean work harder at rebalancing.

assignment policy


What policy to use for assignment and rebalancing.


Thanks,
Durai.
