Abstract
A method and a system for creating a workload distribution plan on a storage system. The method includes, for each storage location, initializing components for at least one data type, such that the components establish a baseline distribution percentage. The method also includes writing data packages onto the storage system over a predetermined time period. The method also includes, for each data type on each storage location, creating a workload distribution plan, where the workload distribution plan distributes a workload of the storage system to the storage location. The method also includes implementing the workload distribution plan on the storage system.
