Abstract: A system and method for efficiently generating calls-to-action using progressive filtering. A method includes determining whether messages are eligible or ineligible for response, wherein determining whether each message is eligible or ineligible for response further includes applying eligibility rules defining criteria for determining that a message requires further action. A first set of filtered messages is created by filtering each message which is determined to be ineligible for response. The first set of filtered messages is clustered into clusters based on contents of the first set of filtered messages. Redundant tasks are identified in at least one first cluster. A second set of filtered messages is created by filtering a portion of the at least one first cluster including the redundant tasks. Calls-to-action are generated based on the second set of filtered messages.

Abstract: Embodiments for volume management in a data storage environment. A network sniffing operation between virtual machines is performed to detect relationships between the virtual machines and thereby identify candidates for subsequent storage volume affiliation operations. The network sniffing operation detects the relationships based on network traffic or alternative similarity attributes of an existing placement of the virtual machines thereby deducing affiliations of storage volumes between the virtual machines such that, during the storage volume affiliation operations, the existing placement of the virtual machines is not modified. The identified candidates to be added to a new or existing storage volume affiliation operation are recommended to a user via a prompt.

Abstract: Embodiments for managing volume replication and disaster recovery in a containerized storage environment. A mapping is established between a PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) having a correlated Persistent Volume (PV), and a source storage World Wide Name (WWN) and a target storage WWN. The mapping is replicated as part of a replication operation between the source storage and the target storage thereby maintaining consistency of the PV associated with one or more application containers among the source storage and the target storage.
