摘要： A method, system, computer system, and computer program product to specify the particular characteristics of hardware to acquire to enable a logical volume to be maintained in accordance with the purpose for which the logical volume was created. In response to a command to perform an operation on a logical volume, existing storage that can be used to perform the operation is identified. If the existing storage is insufficient to perform the operation, a specification is developed for the additional storage to acquire to enable the operation to be performed successfully. Connectivity of the additional storage is also specified to storage objects in the existing logical volume so that the newly-acquired resources can be used for their intended purpose when acquired.

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product for adaptively implementing capabilities of a logical volume. If a particular capability is an inherent attribute of an existing storage device, the existing storage device is chosen to implement the volume. If the particular capability is not an inherent attribute of an existing storage device, one or more storage devices are selected and configured to provide the capability. If a capacity is requested for the logical volume and a storage device provides only a portion of the capacity, multiple storage devices having the capability are combined to provide the requested capability and capacity.

摘要： A method, system, computer system, and computer program product to allocate storage resources among multiple logical volumes. In response to a request to perform a set of operations on multiple logical volumes, a set of allocations of available storage space for performing the set of operations is made. At the time of identifying the storage regions to use for each allocation, the remaining operations and the storage regions that would be available for performing the remaining operations are examined. The rules for implementing each of the logical volumes can be evaluated as part of this examination. If it is apparent that one of the remaining operations will fail based upon a particular set of allocations, space allocated for a previous operation can be de-allocated and alternative allocations can be examined to find a set of allocations that enable the request to be performed successfully.
摘要翻译：一种在多个逻辑卷之间分配存储资源的方法，系统，计算机系统和计算机程序产品。响应于在多个逻辑卷上执行一组操作的请求，进行用于执行该组操作的可用存储空间的一组分配。在识别用于每个分配的存储区域时，检查可用于执行剩余操作的剩余操作和存储区域。用于实现每个逻辑卷的规则可以作为此检查的一部分进行评估。如果显而易见的是，其余的操作之一将基于特定的分配集合而失败，则可以去除分配给先前操作的空间，并且可以检查替代分配以找到能够执行请求的一组分配成功了

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product for preserving the intent of a logical volume creator with the logical volume. The creator of a logical volume defines certain characteristics of that logical volume. In response to the user's requirements, the system explores the possibilities for providing the characteristics in the existing storage environment. The system then implements the logical volume and stores the intent, along with a corresponding set of rules for configuring the logical volume, with the logical volume. As a result, volume management operations like resizing the volume and evacuating data from the volume use the rules to preserve the intent of the creator. By ensuring that the logical volume consistently conforms to rules fulfilling the original intent, a consistent level of availability of the logical volume can be achieved to fulfill contractual availability requirements for storage service level agreements.
摘要翻译：一种方法，系统和计算机程序产品，用于使用逻辑卷保留逻辑卷创建者的意图。逻辑卷的创建者定义该逻辑卷的某些特性。为了响应用户的要求，系统探讨了在现有存储环境中提供特性的可能性。然后，系统实现逻辑卷并将逻辑卷存储在意图中，以及用于配置逻辑卷的相应的一组规则。因此，卷管理操作（如调整卷的大小和从卷中撤出数据）使用规则来保留创建者的意图。通过确保逻辑卷始终符合满足原始意图的规则，可以实现逻辑卷的一致级别的可用性，以满足存储服务级别协议的合同可用性要求。

摘要： A computer system or memory medium with instructions executable by a computer system to detect and/or suggest corrective actions when performance and availability are violated in an environment deploying virtualization at multiple levels. In one embodiment the computer system receives identities of a plurality of first physical storage devices, wherein storage in the plurality of first physical storage devices was logically aggregated to create a first storage object. The computer system also receives identities of a plurality of second physical storage devices, wherein storage in the plurality of second physical storage devices was logically aggregated to create a second storage object. Then, the computer system compares the identity of each of the plurality of first physical storage devices with the identities of the plurality of second physical storage devices.

摘要： A method, system, and language to express storage requirements. The language provides keywords and rules corresponding to commands for configuring a set of storage devices to provide requested capabilities of a logical volume. The language also has keywords and constructs for defining capabilities. The language supports direct inheritance of a capability, where a template specifies another template that contains rules to be used to provide a given capability. The language also supports indirect inheritance of a capability, where a template requires a capability but does not provide an implementation of the capability. In addition, the language is processed to “merge” rules by selecting a single storage device that conforms to more than one rule when possible. Merging rules enables a minimum number of storage devices to be used to meet a given logical volume configuration and set of capabilities.

摘要： A method, system, and computer program product for identifying and reserving suitable replacement storage devices for use when a storage device underlying a logical volume fails or when the size of the volume is to be increased. Replacement devices are reserved if they conform to the intent of a creator of the logical volume and at the time of creation or reconfiguration of the logical volume. Volume management operations like resizing the volume and evacuating data from the volume use the reserved disks that have already been allocated as suitable to preserve the intent of the creator of the logical volume. Reserving replacement disks in advance ensures that a backup disk is available and eliminates the need to perform a lengthy, time-consuming search for a suitable replacement disk that conforms to the intent of the logical volume.
