Abstract
A system for optimizing page size associated with a snapshot tree associated with a storage array, where the system collects current page size information associated with the snapshot tree. The system determines an optimal page size for the snapshot tree. The system creates a new snapshot tree based on the snapshot tree, where the new snapshot tree comprises the optimal page size.
Claims20
A method for optimizing page size associated with a snapshot tree associated with a storage array, the method comprising:
- collecting current page size information associated with the snapshot tree;
- determining an optimal page size for the snapshot tree;
- and
- creating a new snapshot tree based on the snapshot tree, the new snapshot tree comprising the optimal page size.
A system for optimizing page size associated with a snapshot tree associated with a storage array, the system comprising a processor configured to:
- collect current page size information associated with the snapshot tree;
- determine an optimal page size for the snapshot tree;
- and
- create a new snapshot tree based on the snapshot tree, the new snapshot tree comprising the optimal page size.
A computer program product for optimizing page size associated with a snapshot tree associated with a storage array, the computer program product comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium having computer executable program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by a computer processor to:
- collect current page size information associated with the snapshot tree;
- determine an optimal page size for the snapshot tree;
- and
- create a new snapshot tree based on the snapshot tree, the new snapshot tree comprising the optimal page size.
