Systems and methods for quality of service management are provided. According to one embodiment, a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprises instructions that when executed by the processing resource cause the processing resource to collect, from a plurality of volumes on a per-volume basis, one or more real-time performance metrics for one or more compute processes executing on the one or more computer systems, generate an inertial parameter for one or more volumes in the plurality of volumes, and generate an instruction that cause a processor to use the real-time performance metrics and the inertial parameter to determine whether to transfer responsibility for a compute process on a first storage server node to a second storage server node.
