Abstract
A method is used in applying data access activity measurements. A slice relocation candidate list is generated which identifies slices to be relocated along with respective destination tier information. Slices in a pool are matched to respective matching tiers based on the slices' respective temperatures and tier preferences. Based on whether a current tier for a slice differs from the matching tier for the slice, the slice is listed in the relocation candidate list.
