Abstract
Embodiments relate to impact-based migration scheduling. An aspect includes identifying, by a migration scheduling module, a plurality of feasible destination storage devices for a migration session. Another aspect includes determining, for each of the identified destination storage devices, an impact of the migration session during the migration session. Another aspect includes determining, for each of the identified destination storage devices, an impact of the migration session after the migration session is completed. Another aspect includes selecting a destination storage device from the identified destination storage devices based on the impact of the migration session during the migration session and the impact of the migration session after the migration session is completed. Another aspect includes determining a start time and transfer rate for the migration session based on the selected destination storage device.
