Enabling Performance-based Autotuning for a New Block Volume

Learn how to enable performance-based autotuning when creating a new block volume to automatically adjust its performance between levels you specify.

  • This task can't be performed using the Console.

  • Use the oci bv volume create command and specify the --compartment-id and --autotune-policies parameters to enable performance-based autotune for a new block volume:

    oci bv volume create --compartment-id <compartment_ID> --autotune-policies <auto-tune_policies_JSON>'

    For example:

    oci bv volume create --compartment-id ocid1.compartment.oc1.phx.<unique_ID> --autotune-policies '[{"autotune-type": "PERFORMANCE_BASED", "maxVpusPerGB": 50}]''

    For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see the CLI Command Reference.

  • Run the CreateVolume operation and specify the autotunePolicies attribute in the CreateVolumeDetails resource to enable performance-based autotuning.
