3PAR customers have used Dynamic Optimization to re-balance storage volumes across multiple tiers of storage since 2005. Our Policy Advisor software utility helps them make greater use of Dynamic Optimization by analyzing volume data layouts in their 3PAR arrays and generating the commands to move volumes to more appropriate storage resources. Customers can choose to run those commands as a batch process or enter them manually.
Except, why oh why does this only work with fully-provisioned volumes and not with thin provisioned volumes?

Hi Jason, It doesn't work with thin volumes today, but that functionality will be coming. I know you are a DO user and want to get your hands on the automation. You're going to like it.
