Zusammenfassung:A method, according to one embodiment, includes selecting a source data set for migration; determining a predicted future total space allocation based on characteristics of the source data set; determining whether a target volume is capable of accommodating the predicted future total space allocation; migrating the source data set to the target volume in response to determining that the target volume is capable of accommodating the predicted future total space allocation; and requesting an adjustment to an amount of reserved free space on the target volume based on the predicted future total space allocation.
