Insure rebalance data between data node

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi
I'm wondering why it was occurred, from the beginning I used the schema of rebalance date through shards (7shards per index). I have 7 data node and one of additional as coordinator. But one of them is going to reach a watermark 84% but other nodes have occupied in ~20% 45%. Why doesn't elastic distribute this data equally? How can I ensure an even distribution. I thought that using the rule of dividing by shards in the number of data nodes would solve this issue. Indexes are of different value because I keep different pipelines on this deployment.
Please explain. Thanks

Can you share the result of GET _cat/shards?v&s=s from Kibana Dev Console or using a curl?

What are the configuration of your nodes? Are the disk size the same for your 7 nodes?

Hi Yes I have the same one disk size: 2TB x7 data nodes

Please find enclosed GET print from dev tool.
