Elasticsearch doesn't let you weight nodes for balance and the disk space allocation decider really just puts soft limits on the amount of space elasticsearch can take up per machine. There really isn't anything to do it automatically.
You could use a combination of allocation awareness, total_shards_per_node, and forcibly pinning the shards to machines to get something. Its the best there is right now.
