+This section describes the storage management under SimGrid ; nowadays
+it's only usable with MSG. It relies basically on linux-like concepts.
+You also may want to have a look to its corresponding section in \ref
+msg_file_management ; functions access are organized as a POSIX-like interface.

+\subsubsection pf_sto_conc Storage Main concepts
+Basically there is 3 different entities to know :
+\li the <b>storage_type</b>: here you define some kind of storage that you will instantiate many type on your platform. Think of it like a definition of throughput of a specific disk.
+\li the <b>storage</b>: instance of a <b>storage_type</b>. Defines a new storage of <b>storage_type</b>
+\li the <b>mount</b>: says that the storage is located into this specific resource.
+
+the content of a storage has to be defined in a content file that contains the content. The path to this file has to be passed within the <b>content</b> attribute . Here is a way to generate it:
+\verbatim
+find /path/you/want -type f -exec ls -l {} \; 2>/dev/null > ./content.txt
+\endverbatim
+
+\subsubsection pf_sto_sttp storage_type
+
+
+<b>storage_type</b> attributes :
+\li <b>id (mandatory)</b>: the identifier of the storage_type to be used when referring to it.
+\li <b>model (mandatory)</b>: Unused for now by the simulator (but mandatory, ok)
+\li <b>content</b>: default value 0. The file containing the disk content. (may be moved soon or later to <b>storage</b> tag.
+
+The tag must contains some predefined prop, as may do some other resources tags. This should moved to attributes soon or later.
+<b>storage_type</b> mandatory <b>prop</b> :
+\li <b>Bwrite</b>: value in B/s. Write throughput
+\li <b>Bread</b>: value in B/s. Read throughput
+\li <b>Bconnexion</b>: value in B/s. Connection throughput (i.e. the throughput of the storage connector).
+
+\subsubsection pf_sto_st storage
+
+<b>storage_type</b> attributes :
+\li <b>id (mandatory)</b>: the identifier of the storage to be used when referring to it.
+\li <b>typeId (mandatory)</b>: the identifier of the storage_type that this storage belongs to.
