CLI Guide

• medium: Snapshots may be deleted after all eligible low-priority snapshots have been deleted. This is the

default.

• low: Snapshots may be deleted.

[tier-affinity no-affinity|archive|performance]

Optional. For virtual storage, this specifies how to tune the tier-migration algorithm for the volume. The

tier-affinity setting affects all members of a snapshot tree.

• no-affinity: This setting uses the highest available performing tiers first and only uses the Archive

tier when space is exhausted in the other tiers. Volume data will swap into higher performing tiers based

on frequency of access and tier space availability. This is the default.

• archive: This setting prioritizes the volume data to the least performing tier available. Volume data can

move to higher performing tiers based on frequency of access and available space in the tiers.

• performance: This setting prioritizes volume data to the higher performing tiers. If no space is available,

lower performing tier space is used. Performance affinity volume data will swap into higher tiers based

upon frequency of access or when space is made available.
