Session Title:

Tech Preview: Storage DRS

Session Abstract:

In this session, we will provide a tech preview of technology our engineers  are working on in the lab relating to automated management of virtual disks  across storage devices. This work extends and adds to the vSphere 4.1 Storage  I/O Control feature. The aim is to automate the tedious task of managing space  and I/O load across a group of storage devices by intelligent initial placement  and by using storage vMotion of virtual disks between data stores. This is  analogous to how server DRS uses vMotion for CPU and memory load  balancing.
