new microservice to rebalance a single data object about contrib

[misterbass]

Hi @trel
does this new microservice is available in 4.1.9 or do you have a workaround to handle the situation, I am facing same issue !

[trel]

We have not added this microservice yet.

The workaround is to have the iadmin modresc RESCNAME rebalance command run periodically on the server and it will keep the policy defined by the replication resource 'up to date' by making sure the specified children resources keep their replicas are current.
