Abstract
A method, a computing device, and a non-transitory machine-readable medium for managing modes of operation for volumes in a node. A first portion of a plurality of volumes in a node is selected to operate in an active mode. A second portion of the plurality of volumes in the node is selected to operate in a passive mode. The second portion of the volumes that operates in the passive mode consumes fewer resources than the first portion of the volumes that operates in the active mode. The first portion of the plurality of volumes and the second portion of the plurality of volumes are adjusted over time based on activity of each volume of the plurality of volumes.
