Abstract
A tiered storage arrangement is contemplated that provides high speed tier 1 storage for rapid access to recalled data, mid-speed tier 2 storage for data that is not frequently recalled and tier 3 storage for archive purposes that may include tape library storage and even cold storage in vaults. Embodiments contemplate a server linked to all tiered storage devices on one end and a host computer on another. Data files can be migrated between the tiered storage systems based on migration policies, such as time elapsed from being filed or last accessed. Also, embodiments contemplate a time bar displayed at the host computer that provides accurate time predictions of data recall including information of the kind of storage on which a target file is stored and the pathway to recall the target file/s locally to the host computer.
