I'm pleased to announce the initial release of our (Sonian's)
ElasticSearch Equilibrium plugin. The elasticsearch-equilibrium plugin
replaces ElasticSearch's EvenShardsCountAllocator with an allocator
that prevents allocating shards when a disk threshold has been
reached. It also adds a REST endpoint for rebalancing shards across a
cluster to even out disk space.
For more information and how to install/use the plugin, see:
Thanks,
Lee Hinman

Thanks, this sounds nice.
Does this take into account shards and their replicas to ensure that no
more than 1 copy of a shard is placed on any 1 server?

Hi Otis,
Yes, this plugin takes into account all the same Deciders that the original
shard allocator does, just with the additional check for available disk
space before giving the "thumbs up" for shard allocation or relocation.
