More Information
Summary:A method, computer program product, and system for determining an optimal volume placement on a storage system. The method includes acquiring at least a desired response time range for each storage volume associated with an application. The degree of optimization of volume placement is evaluated utilizing numeric scores assigned by a fitness function, and a recommendation is provided for storage volumes that should be moved to different storage pools, such that desired response times are met.
