More Information
Summary:The invention discloses a method and a system for storing volume attributes in a database, particularly to a method, a system and a computer program product for storing one or more volume attributes in a database. The system receives one or more volume attributes which are associated with one or more volumes within a storage system. One or more search terms are assigned to the volume attributes. The one or more volumes and one or more volume attributes are dynamically associated with a location of the one or more volumes. The system assigns the one or more search terms, the one or more volume attributes, and the location of the one or more volumes to the database. The database is stored at a local database and/or an external database. When one or more of the volume attributes are identified during an inquisition for the one or more volumes, the volumes are dynamically retrieved from one or more of the local database and/or an external database.
