Balancing an Elasticsearch Cluster by Shard Size

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Dose ElasticSearch 2.x can balance shards allocation base on its size like the Tempest plugin?

Not that I know of. The best you can do is fiddle with things like allocation awareness and total_shards_per_node.

thanks @nik9000, already tried with the awareness attributes, works pretty good.
