Data mobility

An administrator can obtain information required to see the operating status of storage resources and
optimize data placement.

About data mobility

The Mobility tab provides information required to see the operating status of storage resources and
optimize data placement.

To efficiently use a storage resource, use the Mobility tab to optimize the data arrangement. In the
Mobility tab, information used to determine whether the data arrangement is appropriate is collectively
displayed. In addition, you can use the Mobility tab to centrally perform operations regarding moving
data such as data migration. To use the Mobility tab, you must first register a Tiered Storage Manager
license. Using Mobility tab information, you can evaluate and analyze whether the hardware tiers
are being used appropriately and whether the volumes are providing the expected performance.
Based on these results, you can optimize data placement by migrating data and setting up a Smart
Tiers Software tiering policy (which specifies the hardware tiers in which volumes are to be placed).
