Data Progression VHDs
I have two Tiers of storage
Tier 1 SSD
Tier 2 10k disks
I think I know the answer but with data progression can the storage see any more granular than the VHD?
I.e. Does it see the usage of a VHD or can it see that a file in the VHD has a high read write requirement?
Currently running a Hyper v cluster with VHD's saved to a volume on the iSCSI, will I need to make volumes for each server and directly attach to the VM??

Hello martinbuffleo,
With a Compellent system is a block level system. With data progression it will keep the blocks that are accessed the most on tier 1. Data that is not being accessed a lot will be moved to tier2.
