Abstract

See full text

A system and method for dynamically modifying parameters in a data storage system such as a RAID system. Such parameters include QOS (Quality of Service) parameters, which control the speed in which system operations are performed for various parts of a data storage system. The storage devices addressable as logical volumes can be individually controlled and configured for preferred levels of performance and service. The parameters can be changed at any time while the data storage system is in use, with the changes taking effect very quickly. These parameter changes are permanently stored and therefore allow system configurations to be maintained. A user interface (UI) allows a user or system administrator to easily observe and configure system parameters, preferably using a graphic user interface which allows a user to select system changes along a scale from minimum to a maximum.
