Abstract
A method for managing a storage appliance. The method includes determining an input/output (I/O) workload characterization (IWC) for the storage appliance. The method further includes determining an optimized temperature for the storage modules in the storage appliance based on the IWC, determining that a current temperature of the storage modules is not the optimized temperature, and modifying operation of at least one active cooling component in the storage appliance to change the current temperature of the storage modules to the optimized temperature.
