Sort of. If you take a look at , there are a couple of features that could pertain to this: Layout Enhancement and File Level Replication. In theory, the use of composite layouts with some sort of background replication could potentially be used to restripe an active file. Although this would still likely be a manual process and not something that is automagically done in the background to rebalance OST usage (unless someone decides to do some clever tricks with something like RobinHood). -- Rick Mohr Senior HPC System Administrator National Institute for Computational Sciences
