Abstract
A method is used in managing virtual systems in data storage systems. First and second virtual systems are managed. The first virtual system uses a first format for communicating with a data storage system and the second virtual system uses a second format for communicating with the data storage system. A universal virtual system management module of the data storage system is used for communicating with the first and second virtual systems. The universal virtual system management module communicates with the first virtual system by using a first virtual system handler configured to communicate based on the first format. The universal virtual system management module communicates with the second virtual system by using a second virtual system handler configured to communicate based on the second format.
