Why Auto Adaptive Compression Savings value is different between ONTAP 9.7 and 9.8?
Applies to
- AFF systems
- ONTAP 9.8
- Temperature sensitive storage efficiency (TSSE)
Answer
- ONTAP 9.7 and ONTAP 9.8 has a different value in Auto Adaptive Compression Savings:
ONTAP 9.7:
cluster1::*> storage aggregate efficiency show -aggregate data_aggr1
Aggregate: data_aggr1
Node: cluster1_node01
Has Auto Adaptive Compression Savings: false
ONTAP 9.8:
<<< TSSE enabled
cluster2::*> storage aggregate efficiency show -aggregate data_aggr2
Aggregate: data_aggr2
Node: cluster2_node01
Has Auto Adaptive Compression Savings: true
- TSSE was introduced in ONTAP 9.8 and was enabled automatically on newly created thin-provisioned AFF volumes.
