Abstract
Systems and method are disclosed for provisioning storage for a logical storage device. At least one storage capability profile is provided. A request to provision the storage for the logical storage device is received. A plurality of candidate storage resource configurations are determine based on the at least one storage capability profile and the storage policy profile, where a first candidate storage resource configuration specifies thick provisioning in a first storage pool and a second candidate storage resource configuration specifies thin provisioning in the first storage pool. A ranking of the plurality of candidate storage resource configurations is provided, the ranking indicating the first candidate storage resource configuration has a higher priority than the second candidate storage resource configuration. It is determined that the first storage pool has insufficient storage for thick provisioning. The storage of the logical device is provisioned in accordance with the second candidate storage configuration.
