Modifying the system's rebalancing behavior

Modify the system's rebalancing behavior for a consumer.

About this task

You can configure system rebalancing behavior for each consumer.
Note: Child consumers do not inherit the value set for the parent consumer.

Procedure

  1. From the cluster management console, click Consumer > Consumers & Plans > consumer_name > Consumer Properties > Reclaim behavior.
  2. Click Rebalance when resource plan changes or time interval changes (default).

    Select this option to enforce ownership, share ratios, and borrowing, lending, and share limits for this consumer when the resource plan is changed or the new time interval takes effect, regardless of consumer demand. If corresponding lending and borrowing consumers have different rebalancing settings (one is selected and the other is cleared), the consumer with an over-allocation determines which setting the system uses.

    When Rebalance when resource plan changes or time interval changes is not selected, the system waits until borrowed resources are returned before it enforces new ownership, share ratios, and borrowing, lending, and share limits for this consumer.
    Note: Due to potential interrelationships of consumers, this setting can impact the enforcement of new ownership, share ratios, and borrowing, lending, and share limits for other consumers that must wait for resources to be returned. Configure all consumers in a resource group with the same rebalancing setting.
