[gpfsug-discuss] Tiers

[Mark.Bush at siriuscom.com]

Just curious how many of you out there deploy SS with various tiers?  It seems like a lot are doing the system pool with SSD’s but do you routinely have clusters that have more than system pool and one more tier?

I know if you are doing Archive in connection that’s an obvious choice for another tier but I’m struggling with knowing why someone needs more than two tiers really.

I’ve read all the fine manuals as to how to do such a thing and some of the marketing as to maybe why.  I’m still scratching my head on this though.  In fact, my understanding is in the ESS there isn’t any different pools (tiers) as it’s all NL-SAS or SSD (DF150, etc).

It does make sense to me know with TCT and I could create an ILM policy to get some of my data into the cloud.

But in the real world I would like to know what yall do in this regard.


Thanks

Mark
