Applying tiering policies

After you have defined a tiering policy group, you must apply the defined tiering policies to the storage
system. To apply tiering policies, use the

KTLOAD

command to load the configuration files to the REXX

variable structure, and then execute the

KTACTTPG

command.

Prerequisites

Creating a tiering policy group definition file

To apply tiering policies:

1.

Execute the

KTLOAD

command.

Target volume information and information about the tiering policies defined in configuration
files is loaded from the configuration files to the REXX variable structure.

2.

Execute the

KTACTTPG

command.

The data set in the REXX variable structures is applied to the storage system.

Reference scripts

For details about how to create the script, see sample script KTDEMO10.

storage system.
