Hi

Im new to 3PAR , and looking at the MC of %Usage and %Free on the cages is skewed.
We have added 3 cages before vacation. I ran tunesys after vacation and it got the 3 cages to 42%, but more runs of tunesys does'nt do anything.
We have a mix of 15K and 10K FC and 200GB SSD.

Maybe im doing it wrong or this is how it works. i don't know

What do your CPGs look like? It could well be that you have on which is limited to the older disks.

Tunesys is broken in 3.1.2 through 3.1.3mu1, your cpg's need a -rpm specification that will break other tools so it needs to be added, tunesys run, then removed. Contact support for details. Literally just got done with this after a large upgrade when two runs of tunesys still left us majorally imbalanced.

Josh26: Checked the CPGs and they all the the added disks.

afidel: This how our CPG parameters look now.
