A storage system often needs to serve a multitude of applications, with applications requiring different performance levels. Mission-critical data applications require high performance levels, while secondary applications can be handled by lower performance levels.

In virtualized storage systems, two virtual volumes connected to a host might serve different types of applications and therefore require different performance levels. Infortrend’s prioritized volume accessibility enables users to define which virtual volumes should be prioritized so that their performance can be optimized. This helps to ensure that applications achieve their ideal service levels.
