Hey Mgutha, I'm not sure if you're aware, but this is a public mailing list. You may not want to post public IP addresses and endpoints here with what may be private information about your cluster on them. Good luck getting your swift things figured out! -- Jay Faulkner OpenStack Technical Committee Chair On Mon, Nov 13, 2023 at 2:39 PM <mgutha@liveperson.com> wrote:

I have observed an imbalance in the cluster based on the object.builder output. Is this possibly due to an ongoing rebalance process?

Additionally, I'd like to confirm my understanding of 'min_part_hours.' Is it accurate to say that this parameter represents the number of hours an object needs to reside on a disk before it's considered for movement to another device during a rebalance? According to the Swift documentation, the default value is 24 hours. I'm curious if this value is applied to data written specifically by the rebalance process or if it also includes data written by other Swift services.
