Yes Wido, it is exactly like you said. The more space you use the more IOPS
are allocated to you. For managed storage like SolidFire, where you
guarantee IOPS performance, we have to set it for each volume on the
backend hence you need some kind of ratio to calculate the appropriate IOPS.
Thanks,

That sounds good, Syed.

Mike, you are absolutely right. I have added 4 new fields in the
disk_offering table. The driver code won't need to change as I would pass
the min and max IOPS after translating them. I am not using a fifth
parameter since it is an either or situation, if you pass IOPS/GB in your

So then, based on the use case you mentioned, you are saying you don't really
care about minimum limits, right?
Are the values you specify for the disk offering going to be translated into
the standard min and max values that get stored in the volumes table? If that
is the case, then the storag
Hi Mike,
In case of min and max values of IOPS for a specific offering, there is
another use case. We want to offer tiered storage. Right now if we have a
disk offering, there is no way for us to limit the IOPS that the customer
can set. We want to have say an offering which scales upto 10k IOPS a
Hi Syed,
I have a couple questions.
What about the minimum number of IOPS a storage provider can support?
For example, with SolidFire, in some releases we can go down as low as 100 IOPS
per volume and in newer releases as low as 50 IOPS per volume.
Perhaps you should just leave it to the stora
Hi All,
I am planning to add 4 new parameters to the disk offering. The use case
for this is as follows:
We want to provide a provisioned IOPS style offering to our customers with
managed storage like SolidFire. The model is similar to GCE where we have
IOPS scale with the size based on a predefi
