  • Storage Management of a Storage System
    Publication number: 20140258537
    Abstract: A method for storage management in a storage system, such as a storage area network (SAN). A selection of a first target level of storage service quality (e.g., bronze, silver, gold, platinum) for a storage repository to be created in the SAN is received. The first target level of storage service quality represents a level of storage service quality for the storage repository along a first dimension (e.g. performance, availability) of storage service quality. A first set of storage configuration properties associated with the first level of desired storage service quality is determined. One or more storage components of the SAN are allocated to the storage repository based on at least one storage configuration property in the first set of storage configuration properties.
