Abstract
Examples include acquisition of IOPS limits and MBPS limits independently at a parent scheduler in a scheduler hierarchy of a storage system, wherein the scheduler hierarchy includes a parent level and a child level below the parent level. Examples include setting IOPS limits and MBPS limits independently at each child scheduler placed within the child level of the scheduler hierarchy. Examples include receiving a CPU resource allocation at the parent scheduler, wherein the CPU resource allocation is convertible to an IOPS allocation at the parent scheduler. Example include distributing the IOPS allocation among the child schedulers below the parent scheduler such that each of the child schedulers receive the same distribution of the IOPS allocation. Example include allocating IOPS between the child schedulers based on their corresponding IOPS limits.
