Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, a device and a computer program product of storage management. According to example implementations of the present disclosure, in response to data to be replicated from a first storage zone to a second storage zone, a utilization rate of resources associated with the replication is determined; the utilization rate of the resources is compared with a predetermined threshold utilization rate; and in response to the utilization rate of the resources being less than the threshold utilization rate, the replication of the data is initiated from the first storage zone to the second storage zone. Therefore, the present disclosure can automatically adjust replication behaviors for various scenarios, thereby realizing a more flexible data replication policy, and enabling more efficient use of various resources.
