Rebuy-tournament
If you have a tournament with rebuys to organise, you shouldn't distribute all the chips, but keep some out of the game to begin with. First, you should consider how often each player may rebuy chips. If you play with unlimited chips you'll need more than if you play a game with just one rebuy + add-ons.

FOR UNLIMITED REBUYS
With pro-players at the table you should have enough chips for two rebuys and an add-on. It might be the case that some players go broke and rebuy more often, but some will do so just once or not at all.

LIMITING TO 1 REBUY + 1 ADD-ON
Here you logically need enough chips for only 1 rebuy and an add-on. These ones should be available since you have to assume each player will both rebuy and add-on.

HOW BIG SHOULD THE REBUY AND ADD-ON BE?
A rebuy is usually just as big as the starting stack. The add-on can be just as big, but it can also be bigger, for instance 1.5x the starting stack.

HOW LONG SHOULD THE REBUY PHASE LAST?
You should allow rebuys for as long as it is worthwhile. This means for as long as someone who has just rebought to be able to continue in a reasonable way. If the blinds are 2,000/4,000, it wouldn't be worthwhile for someone to rebuy a stack of 10,000 chips, since he will probably go broke very quickly with just 2 ½ big blinds.
