Abstract

A method, system, and computer program product for preserving the intent 2250 of a logical volume creator with the logical volume 2282. The creator of a logical volume 2282 defines certain characteristics of that logical volume 2282. In response to the user requirements 2210, the system explores the possibilities for providing the characteristics in the existing storage environment. The system then implements the logical volume 2282 and stores the intent 2250, 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 2282 consistently conforms to rules fulfilling the original intent 2250, a consistent level of availability of the logical volume can be achieved to fulfill contractual availability requirements for storage service level agreements.
