For example, if I add a new node, lots of files will begin going there as they're added, but short of failing a node at a time and having mogile rebuild, is there any way to get the entire cluster to rebalance it's files so it's more evenly spread?
In small or new clusters I'd mark a few devices on "old" hosts to drain for a few minutes / hours / whatever to put some data on the new host / devices. In more mature setups it doesn't matter so much; the new host/devices will get plenty data soon enough.
