Usage Notes

You can modify the following configuration settings:

• rebalancer-enable: Set to true or false to enable or disable the rebalancer on this database. For details, see admin:database-set-rebalancer-enable.
• rebalancer-throttle: Set the rebalancer throttle to control the priority of performing rebalancing on the database. Higher numbers give rebalancing a higher priority and system resource allocation. For details, see admin:database-set-rebalancer-throttle.

You can include one or more properties in the input configuration. Properties not included are unchanged. For details, see Database Rebalancing in the Administrator's Guide.

The structure of the data in the request body is as follows:

rebalancer-enable

Enable automatic rebalancing after configuration changes.

Larger numbers mean work harder at rebalancing.
