  • Dynamic storage tiering in a virtual environment
    Patent number: 11334533
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and computer systems for performing dynamic storage tiering in a virtual environment are disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method can include moving a storage object from a first storage tier of a storage system to a second storage tier of the storage system, which can be performed based, at least in part, on tiering information. Such moving can include determining a location of the storage object in the storage system by translating a location of the storage object in a virtual machine file to the location of the storage object in the storage system, using mapping information, and transmitting an instruction to a storage manager of the storage system. The instruction indicates that the storage manager should perform the moving. The mapping information translates a location in the virtual machine file to a corresponding location in the storage system.

  • Dynamic storage tiering in a virtual environment
    Patent number: 10380078
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for performing dynamic storage tiering in a virtual environment. For example, one method can involve identifying a location of a storage object within a virtual machine file, where the virtual machine file includes multiple storage objects. The method then involves detecting whether the storage object meets a criterion of a tiering policy. If the storage object meets the criterion, the storage object is moved from one tier of a multi-tier storage system to another tier of the multi-tier storage system.
