Abstract
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for determining an optimal storage environment for data sets and for migrating data sets. Metadata for each application indicates storage pools used by the application to store data sets, wherein each storage pool is configured in one of a plurality of storage environments using different organization schemes to store data sets. The metadata for at least one application indicates storage pools to store the data sets for the application that are allocated from different storage environments. The metadata for an application is processed to determine a data set for the application stored in a first storage pool implemented in a first storage environment that should be stored in a second storage environment. The determined data set from the first storage pool to a second storage pool implemented in the second storage environment.
