Storage DRS
Storage DRS Storage DRS load balancing frequency differs from DRS load balance frequency, where DRS runs every 5 minutes to balance CPU and memory resources, Storage DRS uses a far more complex load balancing scheme. Let�s take a closer look at Storage DRS load balancing. Default invocation period The invocation period of Storage DRS is every 8 hours and uses what�s called past-day statistics. Storage DRS triggers a load balancing evaluation process if a datastore exceeds the space utilization threshold. Storage DRS load balances space utilization of the datastores and if I/O metric is enabled, load balances on I/O utilization as well. Space utilization and I/O load on a datastore are two different load patterns, therefore Storage DRS uses different methods to accumulate and analyze IO load patterns and space utilization of the datastores within the datastore cluster. Space load balancing statistic collection Analyzing space utilization is rather straightforward; Storage DRS needs t...
