On-prem volume policies
Turbonomic ships with default automation policies that are believed to give you the best results based on our analysis. For certain entities in your environment, you can create automation policies as a way to override the defaults.
Placement policies
By default, all on-prem volumes associated with a storage will move together rather
than independently. You can create placement policies to place individual volumes
on groups of storage. To ensure successful placement, be sure to also turn on the
setting Enable Analysis of On-prem Volumes
in the default global
policy.

Cloud storage tiers
This policy setting works with plans that simulate migration of on-prem volumes to the cloud. When you create the policy, be sure to set the scope to on-prem volumes and then select the cloud storage tiers that they can migrate to. Turbonomic treats these tiers as constraints when you run a Migrate to Cloud plan that includes the volumes defined in the policy.
