Wondering if anyone uses multiple stgpools under a namespace where all stgpools have thresholds attached.
Assume two storage pools A and B under namespace N.
If storage pool A hits a threshold then mmapplypolicy will be called to migrate stgpool A
However, whilst that is occurring, if stgpool B hits its threshold then same mmapplypolicy will be called.
Obviously, this can't work if you're using--single-instance or a file locking method to stop the policy being applied every 2 mins due to the lowDiskSpace event.
How do you handle this?
Move any migration logic out of the main 'running policy' and change the callback to --parms "%eventName %fsName %storagePool" with locking on a per stgpool basis?
