Example implementations relate to virtual persistent volumes. In an example, a storage operation request includes a volume identifier. A volume mapping that corresponds to the volume identifier is identified. Underlying volume identifiers are identified based on the volume mapping. The underlying volume identifiers relate to underlying storage volumes that form at least part of a virtual persistent volume associated with the volume identifier. The storage operation request is relayed, using the underlying volume identifiers, to storage systems on which the underlying storage volumes are respectively located.
