System and method for smart pool space reclamation
A method, computer program product, and computer system for identifying, by a computing device, historical block usage in a plurality of slices for a user. At least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process for the plurality of slices may be determined. At least the portion of the plurality of slices may be excluded from the evacuation process for the plurality of slices based upon, at least in part, the historical block usage in the plurality of slices for the user.
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
identifying, by a computing device, historical block usage in a plurality of slices for a user;
determining at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process for the plurality of slices, wherein the at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process includes one or more slices eligible for being reclaimed wherein determining at least the portion of the plurality of slices to keep during the evacuation process for the plurality of slices includes:
predicting a required allocation of slice numbers for the user based upon, at least in part, the historical block usage in the plurality of slices for the user, and
comparing a current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user; and
excluding at least the portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process for the plurality of slices based upon, at least in part, comparing the current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user, wherein excluding the at least a portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process prevents subsequent repetitive evacuating and reallocating of slices.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein the block usage in the plurality of slices for the user is identified for a pre-determined interval.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein at least the portion of the plurality of slices is excluded from the evacuation process when the current allocated number of slices is less than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 further comprising evacuating at least a second portion of the plurality of slices when the current allocated number of slices is greater than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 4 wherein the current allocated number of slices is at least equal to the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user after evacuating at least the second portion of the plurality of slices.
6. A computer program product residing on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having a plurality of instructions stored thereon which, when executed across one or more processors, causes at least a portion of the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
identifying historical block usage in a plurality of slices for a user;
determining at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process for the plurality of slices, wherein the at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process includes one or more slices eligible for being reclaimed, wherein determining at least the portion of the plurality of slices to keep during the evacuation process for the plurality of slices includes:
predicting a required allocation of slice numbers for the user based upon, at least in part, the historical block usage in the plurality of slices for the user, and
comparing a current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user; and
excluding at least the portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process for the plurality of slices based upon, at least in part, comparing the current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user, wherein excluding the at least a portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process prevents subsequent repetitive evacuating and reallocating of slices.
7. The computer program product of claim 6 wherein the block usage in the plurality of slices for the user is identified for a pre-determined interval.
8. The computer program product of claim 6 wherein at least the portion of the plurality of slices is excluded from the evacuation process when the current allocated number of slices is less than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user.
9. The computer program product of claim 6 wherein the operations further comprise evacuating at least a second portion of the plurality of slices when the current allocated number of slices is greater than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user.
10. The computer program product of claim 9 wherein the current allocated number of slices is at least equal to the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user after evacuating at least the second portion of the plurality of slices.
11. A computing system including one or more processors and one or more memories configured to perform operations comprising:
identifying historical block usage in a plurality of slices for a user;
determining at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process for the plurality of slices, wherein the at least a portion of the plurality of slices to keep during an evacuation process includes one or more slices eligible for being reclaimed, wherein determining at least the portion of the plurality of slices to keep during the evacuation process for the plurality of slices includes:
predicting a required allocation of slice numbers for the user based upon, at least in part, the historical block usage in the plurality of slices for the user, and
comparing a current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user; and
excluding at least the portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process for the plurality of slices based upon, at least in part, comparing the current allocated number of slices with the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user, wherein excluding the at least a portion of the plurality of slices from the evacuation process prevents subsequent repetitive evacuating and reallocating of slices.
12. The computing system of claim 11 wherein the block usage in the plurality of slices for the user is identified for a pre-determined interval.
13. The computing system of claim 11 wherein at least the portion of the plurality of slices is excluded from the evacuation process when the current allocated number of slices is less than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user.
14. The computing system of claim 11 wherein the operations further comprise evacuating at least a second portion of the plurality of slices when the current allocated number of slices is greater than the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user, and wherein the current allocated number of slices is at least equal to the required allocation of slice numbers predicted for the user after evacuating at least the second portion of the plurality of slices.
