Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for optimizing selection of files for eviction from a first storage pool to free up a predetermined amount of space in the first storage pool. A method includes analyzing an effective space occupied by each file of a plurality of files in the first storage pool, identifying, from the plurality of files, one or more data blocks making up a file to free up the predetermined amount of space based on the analysis of the effective space of each file of the plurality of files, selecting one or more of the plurality of files as one or more candidate files for eviction, based on the identified one or more data blocks, and evicting the one or more candidate files for eviction from the first storage pool to a second storage pool.
