Abstract
Provided are techniques for storing one or more storage rules for each of one or more storage locations, along with one or more actions to be taken for each storage rule that is violated, intercepting an I/O operation issued to the storage subsystem, and determining whether the I/O operation violates one or more of the storage rules. In response to determining that the I/O operation violates one or more of the storage rules, an application that issued the I/O operation is identified and each of the one or more actions associated with the one or more violated storage rules are performed.
