   A storage administrator is analyzing the performance of a storage group that supports a critical application. The Workload Planning dashboard shows that the storage group's response time is consistently below the SLO target, but the IOPS are very high. The administrator suspects that the storage group is not meeting the SLO. What should they do?

   • AReview the SLO compliance metrics for the storage group to determine if it is meeting the target.
   • BIncrease the service level objective to a higher tier to improve performance.
   • CIgnore the issue because the response time is below the SLO target, which is good.
   • DReduce the IOPS by limiting the workload to bring response time down.
