Optimisation tools
Large disk arrays can suffer from an imbalance of data across their RAID/parity groups. This is inevitable even if you plan your LUN allocation as data profiles change over time and storage is allocated and de-allocated.
So, tools are available. Think of EMC Optimizer, HDS Cruise Control and Volume...

- BRCD seems to be seeing an uptick today - up 7.6% already - hoping Dell are on the rebound?
- @Storagezilla I didn't think there were any EVA folks any more (natural selection)
