Abstract

The present disclosure provides storage management systems and methods. A hierarchical configuration information process includes accessing information regarding hierarchical relationships of components associated with a storage environment. A storage resource consumption detection process includes detecting consumption of storage resources included in the storage environment. A coordinated consumption analysis process is coordinated across multiple levels of an active spindle hierarchy. A reaction process includes performing an automated consumption notification process and an automated reclamation process based upon results of the storage resource consumption detection process.
