VMAX Fast VP

In fast vp  does enguinity/controler   moves the busiest  blocks to high performace tiers/pools  even if the raid level differs.

Lets say i have "Pool_EFD_R1" of raid 1/0 and" pool_FC_R5"of raid 5 .So if the busiest block is of raid 5 will it move that block to Pool_EFD of raid1.???

                         OR

Do we need to create different tiers for raid levels

Say " Pool_EFD_R1" for Raid 1/0 and pool_FC_R1 of Raid1/0

and   Pool_EFD_R5 of  Raid 5 and pool_FC_R5 of Raid 5

so that data movement is between the raid pools tiers .

Yes FAST VP does the inter raid movement so if your tdev is currently in raid 5 FC pool and it needs to be promoted to the EFD which is raid 1, FAST vp can do it.

FAST VP can move between raid protections.

And there isn't a RAID1 and a RAID 0/1 for VP pools, only RAID1, but the pools are always striped.
