MANAGING A STORAGE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for managing a storage system, the method comprising:
- determining, using first data of a first configuration of the storage system and second data related to element interactions of the storage system, a first operational characteristic of the first configuration;
generating, using the second data, at least a second configuration of the storage system that differs from the first configuration; and
predicting, using the second data, at least a second operational characteristic of the second configuration.

Abstract
A method of and system for managing a storage system is disclosed. The method and system may include determining a first operational characteristic of a first configuration. The determination may be made using first data of the first configuration of the storage system and second data related to element interactions of the storage system. The method and system may include generating, using the second data, at least a second configuration of the storage system that differs from the first configuration. The method and system may include predicting, using the second data, at least a second operational characteristic of the second configuration.

10. A computer-implemented method for managing a storage system, the method comprising:
-
collecting first data of a first configuration of the storage system; determining, using the first data of the first configuration of the storage system and second data related to element interactions of the storage system, a first operational characteristic of the first configuration that includes a first performance factor and a first storage usage factor; generating, using the second data, at least a second configuration of the storage system that differs from the first configuration; predicting, using the second data, at least a second operational characteristic of the second configuration that includes a second performance factor and a second storage usage factor; generating, using the second data, at least a third configuration of the storage system that differs from the first and second configurations; and predicting, using the second data, at least a third operational characteristic of the third configuration of the storage system that includes a third performance factor and a third storage usage factor. - View Dependent Claims (11)
