How to equalize heat maps VNX5200

Hello,

I have a VNX5200 and when I look in the VNX MR reporting tool at heat maps, all of our NL SAS drives are in the bright red with 69-76% utilization.


Is this something to be concerned about, and can I do something about it?  I have quite a few disks in other enclosures in the shades of green, and there is one drive in Bus 0 Enclosure 0 (disk 11) in the blue.

I'm just investigating solutions to expand storage and improve performance of this now somewhat aging array.

Thanks!

I'd make sure that you have the FAST VP license installed and setup and a schedule set for each Pool. That way hot slices should be moved to faster Disks, which should reduce the workload.
