Rebalancing files in a storage pool

A root user can rebalance file data across all disks in a file system by issuing the mmrestripefs command.

Optionally:
  • Specifying the -P option rebalances only those files assigned to the specified storage pool.
  • Specifying the -p option rebalances the file placement within the storage pool. For files that are assigned to one storage pool, but that have data in a different pool, (referred to as ill-placed files), using this option migrates their data to the correct pool. (A file becomes ill-placed when the -I defer option is used during migration of the file between pools.)
