Abstract
An apparatus comprises at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The at least one processing device is configured to obtain usage information for each of two or more storage systems of a storage cluster, and to determine a wear level of each of the storage systems of the storage cluster based at least in part on the obtained usage information. The at least one processing device is also configured to identify a wear level imbalance of the storage cluster based at least in part on the determined wear levels of each of the storage systems of the storage cluster. The at least one processing device is further configured, responsive to the identified wear level imbalance of the storage cluster being greater than an imbalance threshold, to move storage objects between the storage systems of the storage cluster.
