You can change how frequently ONTAP performs a cold data scan by modifying the coldness threshold on volumes using temperature-sensitive storage efficiency.
Before you begin
You must be a cluster or SVM administrator and use the ONTAP CLI advanced privilege level.
About this task
The coldness threshold can be from 1 to 60 days. The default threshold is 14 days.
Steps
-
Set the privilege level:
set -privilege advanced
-
Modify inactive data compression on a volume:
volume efficiency inactive-data-compression modify -vserver <vserver_name> -volume <volume_name> -threshold-days <integer>
See the man page for additional information about modifying inactive data compression.
