Dynamic resource allocation based on data transferring to a tiered storage

Abstract:

A computing system includes a computer in communication with a tiered storage system. The computing system identifies a set of data transferring to a storage tier within the storage system. The computing system identifies a program to which the data set is allocated and determines to increase or reduce resources of the computer allocated to the program, based on the set of data transferring to the storage tier. The computing system discontinues transferring the set of data to the storage tier if a resource allocated to the program cannot be increased.
