Abstract

A method is used in managing accesses to storage. An amount of data storage space in use by a mapped logical volume and RAID group characteristics of a storage pool used by the mapped logical volume are determined. Based on the amount and the RAID group characteristics, a report of storage resources corresponding to the mapped logical volume is produced. Based on the report, accesses to the mapped logical volume are controlled.
