A data storage management layer comprises computing device(s), operatively connected to storage resources, which comprise data storage units and control units. The data storage management layer is operatively connected to the storage resources. They are operatively connected to host computers. A sub-set of the storage resources are assigned to each host, in order to provide storage services according to performance requirements predefined for the host, thereby generating Virtual Private Arrays (VPA). The computing device(s) are configured to perform a method of managing the data storage system comprising: (a) implement storage management strategies, comprising rules. The rules comprise conditions and actions. The actions are capable of improving VPA performance in a dynamic manner; (b) repetitively performing: (i) monitor VPA performance for detection of compliance of VPA with the condition(s); and (ii) responsive to detection of compliance of VPA with the condition(s), performing the action(s).
