Migrating data from a large extent pool to a small extent pool
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes identifying a request to migrate data associated with a volume from a first storage pool to a second storage pool; identifying entries in a first table corresponding to rank extents in the first storage pool containing the data; allocating and synchronizing a plurality of second tables for the identified entries of the first table that are located in the volume; transferring the data associated with the volume from the rank extents in the first storage pool containing the data to one or more rank extents in the one or more ranks of the second storage pool; and updating the second tables to correspond to the transferred data in the one or more rank extents in the one or more ranks of the second storage pool.
