Managing QoS Profiles
QoS profiles describe QoS settings that can be applied to volumes.
By defining QoS profiles to apply to volumes, you potentially limit I/Os that the volumes can perform, and also define their
relative priority during times of congestion.
You can also define a group QoS profile that can be applied to multiple volumes to limit the I/Os that the volumes can do in
aggregate.
