Abstract
Policy-based performance of storage management operations on objects of a file system using an index of the file system is presented herein. An object policy component maintains an object policy specifying that an operation is to be performed on an object of objects that have been stored in a system in response to a determination that a state of the object satisfies a defined policy condition. Further, a job component periodically accesses an index data structure of the system comprising respective attributes of the objects that have been stored in the system, and in response to the state of the object being determined, based on a group of attributes of the respective attributes of the object, to satisfy the defined policy condition, performs the operation on the object.
