Current rebalance throttle options: lazy/normal/aggressive may not always be
sufficient for the purpose of throttling. In our recent test, we observed for
certain setups, normal and aggressive modes behaved similarly consuming full
disk bandwidth. So in cases like this admin should be able to tune it
down(or vice versa) depending on the need.
Along with old throttle configurations, thread counts are tuned based on number.
e.g. gluster v set vol-name cluster-rebal.throttle 5.
Admin can tune up/down between 0 and the number of cores available.
Note: For heterogenous servers, validation will fail on the old server if "number"
is given for throttle configuration.
The message looks something like this:
"volume set: failed: Staging failed on vm2. Error: cluster.rebal-throttle should be {lazy|normal|aggressive}"
Test: Manual test by logging active thread number after reconfiguring throttle option.
testcase: tests/basic/distribute/throttle-rebal.t
