    Abstract: An illustrative storage system generates a managed directory group for a file system. For example, the storage system may determine, in a file system, that a first managed directory and a second managed directory satisfy one or more criteria. The storage system may generate, in the file system and based on the determination, a managed directory group configured to provide coordinated storage management functionality to contents of the first managed directory and contents of the second managed directory as a group based on policies of the managed directory group.

    Abstract: An illustrative data storage system is configured to efficiently copy virtual machines across different protocols/formats. For example, a storage system virtually copies images of a virtual machine from a first type of presented storage format to a second type of presented storage format. As another example, a storage system virtually copies a source virtual machine image into a block object to form a file of a block-object-based file system configured to present the virtually copied virtual machine image through a file-based protocol to a virtual machine host.
