Abstract
A method for storage management of an object among a plurality of storage devices of a datacenter is provided. The method, in response to receiving an input on a selection item presented through a UI, determines that a manual storage management of an object is selected. The method then receives a storage policy for storing the object. Based on the storage policy, the method defines a plurality of components for the object and determines whether a set of one or more storage resources is available for storing the plurality of components. When the method determines that the set is available, for each component, the method presents the set of storage resources, receives a selection of a storage resource in the set to store the component, and updates the set based on the policy and the selection before presenting the updated set to select from for storing a next component.
