Hi Tushar, One possible reason is that one of your devices is unavailable when you're uploading ? This makes some of objects are uploaded to handoff devices actually and obj-replicator will try to move them back to primary devices.

Later (after all replication/rebalance completed) I uploaded many objects in a multiple containers. I observe the data movement across these devices through rsync replicator daemon. I understand that the object rebalance (using rsync) should happen only when we add devices or change weight value in ring (and if multiple replicas configured). So what is a reason that it performs data movement (of newly uploaded objects) without any ring changes and single replica? Thanks in advance, Tushar _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
