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.

Note:
The rebalancer is enabled on each new forest by default.

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

  1. Click Databases in the left tree menu. A list of databases appears.

  2. Click your target database.

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

  4. On the Configure tab, click the name of the forest for which you want to enable or disable the rebalancer.

  5. In the Configure tab, scroll down to Rebalancer Enable, and set it to true to enable the rebalancer or false to disable the rebalancer.

  6. 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.

  7. Click OK.
