Volume record data set optimization apparatus and method

摘要

A method for optimizing a plurality of volume records stored in cache may include monitoring a volume including multiple data sets, wherein each data set is associated with a volume record, and each volume record is stored in a volume record data set. The method may include tracking read and write operations to each of the data sets over a period of time. The method may further include reorganizing the volume records in the volume record data set such that volume records for data sets with a larger number of read operations relative to write operations are grouped together, and volume records for data sets with a smaller number of read operations relative to write operation are grouped together. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.
