adaptive

Adaptive QoS policy-groups define measurable service level objectives (SLOs) that adjust based on the storage object used space and the storage object allocated space.

Name Type Description

absolute_min_iops

integer

Specifies the absolute minimum IOPS that is used as an override when the expected_iops is less than this value. These floors are not guaranteed on non-AFF platforms or when FabricPool tiering policies are set.

block_size

string

Specifies the block size

expected_iops

integer

Expected IOPS. Specifies the minimum expected IOPS per TB allocated based on the storage object allocated size. These floors are not guaranteed on non-AFF platforms or when FabricPool tiering policies are set.

expected_iops_allocation

string

Specifies the size to be used to calculate expected IOPS per TB. The size options are either the storage object allocated space or the storage object used space.

peak_iops

integer

Peak IOPS. Specifies the maximum possible IOPS per TB allocated based on the storage object allocated size or the storage object used size.

peak_iops_allocation

string

Specifies the size to be used to calculate peak IOPS per TB. The size options are either the storage object allocated space or the storage object used space.

fixed

QoS policy-groups define a fixed service level objective (SLO) for a storage object.

Name Type Description

capacity_shared

boolean

Specifies whether the capacities are shared across all objects that use this QoS policy-group. Default is false.

max_throughput_iops

integer

Maximum throughput defined by this policy. It is specified in terms of IOPS. 0 means no maximum throughput is enforced.

max_throughput_mbps

integer

Maximum throughput defined by this policy. It is specified in terms of Mbps. 0 means no maximum throughput is enforced.

min_throughput_iops

integer

Minimum throughput defined by this policy. It is specified in terms of IOPS. 0 means no minimum throughput is enforced. These floors are not guaranteed on non-AFF platforms or when FabricPool tiering policies are set.

min_throughput_mbps

integer

Minimum throughput defined by this policy. It is specified in terms of Mbps. 0 means no minimum throughput is enforced.

svm

Name Type Description

_links

_links

name

string

The name of the SVM.

uuid

string

The unique identifier of the SVM.
