AO completed in 1 second

[M1kkel]

Hey.

Brand new 3par system, installed yestoday. Migrated some VM's to the system today. AO runs from 07:00 to 17:00 and starts optimization at 18:00, max runtime 6 hours.

First run today, took 1 second. It have been set for performance mode. VM's was migrated to the sytem until 13:00. Any idea why it would only run for 1 second, and complete sucessfully - however nothing was moved to ssd. Are the VM's on the array too fresh for AO to measure anything yet?

I have two tiers, FC10K and SSD
The output is here:

I think the first day the array is running it still has to figure things out internally. I'd wait until tomorrow and see what it processes.

Did AO ever run correctly?

[Darking]

Having done the same myself, my experience is that it will take 1-2 days for it to start moving.

I still havnt managed to get much data up in the SSD tier, but my latencies and IOPs on my tiers are placed correctly 99% of the IO happends on the SSD tier, even though it only has around 10% of the data.

I am also using the performance profile.

Hi guys. Sorry i did'nt reply. I only got one mail regarding new post.

To answer the question, 1 day later ao ran correctly and moved 210 gb. It have been running a few days more, and 300 gb lies in the ssd tier now. I was hoping for more, because i dont want to waste all the good ssd io

I've been migrating 10 servers more over the weekend, so i guess more will be moved on monday.

Which report in report manager would you create, to see the io distribution - ssd vs. Fc?

Yes - see my new post

The SR Report you are looking for is probably Adaptive Optimization > VV Tiers
