Abstract
A method is used in managing data storage in virtual systems. A data storage system is queried through a universal framework module of the data storage system. The universal framework module includes a first set of interfaces associated with a format used by a virtual system to communicate with the data storage system. Information associated with the data storage is retrieved from a platform specific module of the data storage system. The platform specific module provides the information to the universal framework module. The platform specific module includes a second set of interfaces based on a type of the data storage system.
