I see. Another related question. Now if I start a fix-layout rebalance,
I don't can't see any status update using "gluster volume rebalance
<vol> status. Is it by design or do I need to use a different command?
Thanks,

Hi ling,
The feature for speeding up rebalance by allowing multiple servers to support
parallel rebalance is in release 3.3.0.
A single rebalance processes is started on every node/server where the volume's
bricks exist.
These rebalance processes share load between themselves to migrate data, hence
reducing the bottleneck of having only 1 rebalance thread do the work.
Additionally, all rebalance processes push data to the destination node, hence
better utilizing the network too.
Hope this answers your query.
With regards,
Shishir

Subject: [Gluster-users] rebalance speedup
I found a discussion earlier this year regarding a planned feature for
speeding up rebalancing in 3.3.0.
Is these a way to speed up rebalancing now in 3.3.0? Is it possible to
let rebalancing between multiple servers making use of more of available
network bandwidth?
I have 5 servers with 10Gb network, and 40Gb infiniband. The copying is
going on the 10Gb interface only when I started rebalance, and it's
consuming less than 1Gb/s for each streams.
Thanks,
