The formatting is mangled on my phone, but if I am reading it correctly, you have set Target Ratio to 4.0. This means you have told the balancer that this pool will occupy 4x the space of your whole cluster, and to optimize accordingly. This is naturally a problem. Setting it to 0 will clear the setting and allow the autobalancer to work.

But it tells me that there is more data stored in the pool than the raw capacity provides (taking the replication factor RATE into account) hence the RATIO being above 1.0 .

How comes this is the case? - Data is stored outside of the pool?
How comes this is only the case when the autoscaler is active?

Thanks
