Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes identifying a plurality of storage systems within a storage environment, determining characteristics of each of the plurality of storage systems, the characteristics including one or more data reduction techniques implemented by each of the plurality of storage systems, performing a plurality of storage simulations of one or more data volumes, utilizing the characteristics of each of the plurality of storage systems, and determining one of the plurality of storage systems to store the one or more data volumes, based on results of the plurality of storage simulations.

Abstract: A storage system analysis and monitoring mechanism performs root cause analysis and monitoring of a storage system via a single view of the storage system. A set of objects are identified within the storage system, where the identification of the set of objects is performed by at least one of a topology discovery or a data structure search. For each object in the set of objects, one or more interconnections to one or more other objects in the set of objects are identified. A view of the storage system is then generated in a graphical user interface showing each of the objects in the set of objects and, for each object in the set of objects, the one or more interconnections to one or more other objects in the set of objects.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for generating a configuration page for rendering in a graphical user interface (GUI) for managing provisioning of storage resources in a storage system. A determination is made of allocation commitment certainties for virtual storage ranges to allocate from the storage system based on physical capacity in the storage system and an estimated data reduction rate. Each of the allocation commitment certainties indicates a likelihood that a corresponding of the virtual storage ranges will be available for allocation in the storage system. Visual representation of a plurality of user selectable storage spaces indicating the allocation commitment certainties for the virtual storage ranges in the user selectable storage spaces are rendered in the configuration page. A user selection graphic that when selected provisions a selected of the user selectable storage spaces in the storage system is rendered in the configuration page.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for generating component pages to render in a configuration page in a graphical user interface (GUI) to configure a computing resource. A plurality of component pages are generated to render in the configuration page. Each component page includes user configuration setting controls to enable the user to set configuration parameters for component resources to configure the computer resource. The configuration page is generated to: render a main panel in the GUI program; render graphical component page selection controls in the GUI program associated with the component pages; receive user selection of a selected one of the graphical component page selection controls associated with one of the component pages; and render the component page associated with the selected graphical component page selection control.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for generating user interface (GUI) configuration pages to configure a computing resource comprised of component computing resources. A configuration page is generated for rendering in a GUI having user selectable graphical representations of a hierarchy of component computing resources from which a subject computing resource is configured. Each of the component computing resources graphically represented as within a higher level component computing resource in the hierarchy is configured with capacity from the higher level component computing resource. User selection is received of one of the graphical representations of a selected one of the component computing resources in the graphical representations of the hierarchy.
