QUALITY OF SERVICE (QOS) SETTINGS OF VOLUMES IN A DISTRIBUTED STORAGE SYSTEM

Abstract:

A system, method, and machine-readable storage medium for providing a set of recommended quality of service (QoS) settings are provided. In some embodiments, providing the recommendation includes receiving a set of QoS settings of a volume for a client, a set of measured QoS metrics of the volume for the client, and a measure of load for a slice service corresponding to the volume. Providing the recommendation further includes determining a predicted QoS metric of the volume and a predicted load of the slice service. Providing the recommendation also includes determining, based on the predicted QoS metric, the predicted load, and the set of QoS settings, a set of recommended QoS settings to the client. The set of QoS settings of the volume for the client is then updated with the set of recommended QoS settings.
