As of now, Tier migration process is considered as a task. So Tier
migration daemon will be running on a tiered volume indefinitely. So As
long as your volume is a started tiered volume, Tier migration task will
be shown as in progress. If something failed, it will move to failed state.


Definitely, this is not an issue, ie it is a expected behavior. In fact,
we are planning to move tier migration process to a service based job
rather than a task based. Please let me know if you have any suggestion
or concerns in this area or any thing related to this feature.
