Running the Balancer
The Balancer usually shows a status of N/A on the HDFS > Status tab because the Balancer runs only temporarily.
To run the Balancer:
- On the HDFS > Status tab, choose Rebalance on the Actions menu.
- Click Rebalance that appears in the next screen to confirm. If you see a Finished status, the Balancer successfully ran and completed.

The Balancer role is normally added (by default) when the HDFS service is installed. If it has not been added, you must add a Balancer role instance in order to rebalance HDFS and to see the Rebalance action.
