Identifies the pool.
Status
Identifies the status of data relocation on the pool. Value is one of the following:
Not started - Data relocation has not started.
Paused
- Data relocation is paused.
Completed
- Data relocation is complete.
Stopped by user - Data relocation was stopped by the user.
Active - Data relocation is in progress.
Failed - Data relocation failed.
Relocation type
Type of data relocation. Value is one of the following:
Manual - Data relocation was initiated by the user.

Identifies whether the pool is rebalanced according to the system FAST VP schedule. Value is one of the following:
yes
no
Start time
Indicates the time the current data relocation started.
End time
Indicates the time the current data relocation is scheduled to end.
Data relocated
The amount of data relocated during an ongoing relocation, or the previous relocation if a data relocation is not occurring. The format is:
<value> [suffix]
where:
value - Identifies the size of the data relocated.
suffix - Identifies that the value relates to the previous relocation session.
Rate
Identifies the transfer rate for the data relocation. Value is one of the following:
Low - Least impact on system performance.
Medium - Moderate impact on system performance.
High - Most impact on system performance.
Default value is medium.
NOTE:This field is blank if data relocation is not in progress.
Data to move up
The amount of data in the pool scheduled to be moved to a higher storage tier.
Data to move down
The amount of data in the pool scheduled to be moved to a lower storage tier.
Data to move within
The amount of data in the pool scheduled to be moved within the same storage tiers for rebalancing.
Data to move up per tier
The amount of data per tier that is scheduled to be moved to a higher tier. The format is:
<tier_name>:[value]
where:
tier_name - Identifies the storage tier.
value - Identifies the amount of data in that tier to be move up.
Data to move down per tier
The amount of data per tier that is scheduled to be moved to a lower tier. The format is:
<tier_name>:[value]
where:
tier_name - Identifies the storage tier.
value - Identifies the amount of data in that tier to be moved down.
Data to move within per tier
The amount of data per tier that is scheduled to be moved to within the same tier for rebalancing. The format is:
<tier_name>:[value]
where:
tier_name - Identifies the storage tier.
value - Identifies the amount of data in that tier to be rebalanced.
Estimated relocation time
Identifies the estimated time required to perform the next data relocation.
