Abstract:
A method, system, and computer program product for file relocation on a data storage device are provided. The method includes initiating file relocation in response to invoking a cleaner function for a data storage device. The method also includes examining metadata associated with a file on the data storage device to determine an access frequency of the file, and classifying the file as a function of the access frequency. The method further includes relocating the file to a fast region of the data storage device when the file is classified as frequently accessed, and relocating the file to a slow region of the data storage device when the file is classified as infrequently accessed.
