Abstract

Computer software that adjusts a performance capability of a storage volume by (i) determining a current storage volume to store data having a workload pattern, wherein a cycle of the workload pattern includes a hot period and a cold period, (ii) determining a time limit window of the current storage volume, wherein the time limit window is a shortest time window within which performance capability of the current storage volume is to be kept without adjustment, (iii) determining a low performance period of the current storage volume corresponding to the cold period, and (iv) in response to the low performance period being greater than or equal to the time limit window, reducing the performance capability of the current storage volume during the low performance period.
