Abstract
Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a host computer selecting a first workload of a plurality of workloads running on the host computer to be subjected to an input/output (I/O) trace. The host computer determines whether to generate the I/O trace for the first workload for a first length of time or for a second length of time. The first length of time is shorter than the second length of time. The determination is based upon runtime history for the first workload, I/O trace history for the first workload, and/or workload type of the first workload. The host computer generates the I/O trace of the first workload for the selected length of time.
