anoopsjohn commented on issue #1511: HBASE-24139 : Balancer should avoid leaving idle region servers URL: https://github.com/apache/hbase/pull/1511#issuecomment-614767979 > > The Jira was discussing abt a cost function based change right? Or this way? Sorry read that some time back > > We talked about this, but @symat pointed out that only benefit to making it a tunable cost function is the ability change how many new RS you can onboard before the balancer starts using them. In the case of wanting to onboard a group of RS at a time operators are better off just turning the balancer off while the RS are brought online and then turning it back on. > > Personally I agree with this reasoning. Read those Jira level discussion later. Ya make sense.. Thanks
