Configuring the Rebalancer on a Forest

In addition to enabling and disabling on the database level, as described in Configuring the Rebalancer on a Database, the rebalancer can also be enabled or disabled on each individual forest. For the rebalancer to run on a forest, it must be enabled on both the database and the forest.

To configure the rebalancer on a forest, follow these steps:

1. Click the Databases icon on the left-tree menu.

2. Select the database for which you want to configure the forest.

3. Click the database name, either on the tree menu or the summary page.

4. In the left-tree menu under the database name, select Forests.

5. In the Database Forest Configuration page, select the forest for which you want to enable or disable the rebalancer.

6. In the Forest Configuration page, scroll down to Rebalancer Enable, and set it to true to enable the rebalancer or false disable the rebalancer.

7. If you have configured the forest’s database with the range assignment policy, you can set the range for this forest in the lower bound and upper bound fields. Do not set a range if this forest is to serve as a default forest.

8. Click OK.
