Abstract

Described are techniques for using resources of a data storage system. The data storage system is configured to have a first data storage configuration including a first extendable resource. The data storage system is configured to execute a virtual machine and one or more applications executing in the context of the virtual machine. One or more metrics are monitored regarding any of data storage system resource utilization and performance. It is determined whether the one or more metrics comply with specified criteria. If the one or more metrics do not comply with the specified criteria, processing is performed that includes providing a notification in connection with migrating any of the virtual machine and data used by the virtual machine from the data storage system.
