Abstract

Methods, computing systems and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include defining multiple storage capabilities for a set of storage resources in multiple storage systems, the storage resources including storage space, and identifying two of the storage systems including one or more storage capabilities required by a first logical volume. A first given identified storage system is configured to store the first logical volume, and a second given identified storage system is configured to store a second logical volume, the second given storage system different from the first given storage system. Upon storing data to the first logical volume, the data can be mirrored to the second logical volume. In some embodiments, a software defined storage system can be configured including defined services, wherein the first given storage system includes a first given service, and wherein the second given storage system includes a second given service.
