In the ”HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage best practices guide” the recommended best practice is that no thin provisioning volumes should be directly associated with SSD CPGs if SSDs are used in OA configuration. The thin provisioning volumes should only be associated with FC CPGs.
Okay, so if I WANT a SSD only volume I should make this a thick? Likewise with NL?
We have the following objective:
1. Use thin as much as possible
2. Provisioning volumes in “silver, gold and platinum”-type’s performance wise
3. Have an option open for creating a volume above “platinum” level for pure SSD
We have about 2.5% capacity in SSD
What would you guys recommend?
