Each file is copied with a `.rebalance` suffix, retaining all file attributes. The original is then deleted and the *copy* is renamed back to the name of the original file. When copying a file ZFS will spread the data blocks across all vdevs, effectively distributing/rebalancing the data of the original file (more or less) evenly. This allows the pool data to be rebalanced without the need for a separate backup pool/drive. -The way ZFS distributes writes is trivial, which makes it hard to predict how effective the redistribution will be.
