Start-VsanRelayoutObjects Command | Vmware PowerCLI Reference

Start-VsanRelayoutObjects

This cmdlet starts the task of relayouting objects for specified vSAN clusters. After a cluster is upgraded to vSAN 7.0 U1 or later from vSAN 7.0 or earlier version, the objects greater than 255 GB created with the older version must be rewritten in the new format so that vSAN can perform operations on an object with the new free space requirements. A new object format health alert is displayed after an upgrade, if there are objects that must be fixed to the new object format. You can fix the cluster health state by starting a task to relayout objects for the specified vSAN clusters.
