Diagnostics and <strong>Troubleshooting</strong> <strong>Reference</strong> <strong>Manual</strong> – Virtual SAN<br />

Some clarity might be needed for the start parameter “--variance-threshold”. The<br />

description states "Configure the threshold, that only if disk's used capacity divided<br />

by disk capacity exceeds this threshold... "<br />

In fact, the trigger condition is only when the following calculation is greater than<br />

the :<br />

( / ) -<br />

( / )<br />

In other words, a disk is qualified for proactive rebalancing only if its fullness<br />

(used_capacity/disk_capacity) exceeds the fullness of the "least-full" disk in the<br />

vsan cluster by the threshold. The rebalancing process also needs to wait until the<br />

is met under this situation, and then start to try rebalancing.<br />

Here is an example of how to start and stop proactive component balancing via RVC:<br />
