Hi!

I'm wondering: If you boot a node on a cluster, most resources will go to 
another node (if possible). Due to stickiness configured, those resources will 
stay there.
So I'm wondering whether or how I could cause a rebalance of resources on the 
cluster. I must admit that I don't understand the details of stickiness related 
to other parameters. In my understanding stickiness should be related to a 
percentage of utilization dynamically, so that a resource running on a node 
that is "almost full" should dynamically lower its stickiness to allow resource 
migration.

So if you are going to implement a manual resource rebalance operation, could 
you dynamically lower the stickiness for each resource (by some amount or some 
factor), wait if something happens, and then repeat the process until resources 
look balanced. "Looking balanced" should be no worse as if all resources are 
started when all cluster nodes are up.

Spontaneous pros and cons for "resource rebalancing"?

Regards,
Ulrich
