Managing AO Configuration

Adaptive Optimization (AO) makes it possible to perform cost and performance optimization by
migrating busy regions to higher performance storage (e.g. RAID 1 on SSDs), and moving
infrequently accessed regions to lower performance storage (e.g. RAID 6 on NL disks).

For storage systems which support the adaptive optimization feature, an AO Configurations node
will appear in the Management Tree for both the Storage Systems and Domains tree nodes.

NOTE:

An AO license is required in order to perform the actual tuning and optimization. If no

AO license is present on the array, only an analysis of potential optimization can be performed.

The AO Configuration wizard is available through the Provisioning Manager. It allows you to
create, edit, delete, start, and schedule AO configurations.
