A plurality of data sets is identified. A data model is generated representing the data sets. The data model represents the data sets and variations of the data sets as entities, relationships between the data sets as associations, and values associated with the entities as properties. The data model identifies states corresponding to the data sets wherein each state has associated therewith one or more of the entities, the associations and the properties. A state-aware attribute is maintained for each entity and for each association indicating to which one or more of the states the entity and the association respectively belong.

Techniques for improved workflow for migration planning of data storage systems. For example, a method comprises the following steps. A plurality of elements representing events of a workflow are generated, wherein each element is active for a predetermined duration. A group of one or more assets to be migrated as a unit are assigned to each element. A group of the one or more assets is moved from a first element of the plurality of elements to a second element of the plurality of elements.

Workflow for migration planning of data storage systems

Techniques for improved replication of storage arrays in data storage systems. For example, a method comprises the following steps. A first set of physical storage devices in a data storage system are identified for replication. Specification is received from a user of at least one storage pool in the data storage system in accordance with which the first set of physical storage devices is to be replicated. A second set of physical storage devices is allocated from the user-specified storage pool. Data stored on the first set of physical storage devices is replicated onto the second set of physical storage devices.

Array-based replication in data storage systems

Raw data is uploaded to a workspace, and an asset is determined from the raw data. The asset from the raw data is compared with an existing asset in the workspace to determine if the asset from the raw data already exists in the workspace. The comparing includes comparing a first distinguished name of the asset from the raw data with a second distinguished name of the existing asset to determine if the first and second distinguished names are the same.
