摘要： A system and method comprising: receiving a request to write data stored at a first range of a first volume to a second range of a second volume, where first metadata for the first range of the first volume is associated with a range of physical addresses where the data is stored in the storage system; and responsive to receiving the request: creating second metadata for the second range of the second volume, wherein the second metadata is associated with the range of physical addresses where the data is stored in the storage system; and associating the second volume with the second metadata.

摘要： A pod, the pod including the dataset, a set of managed objects and management operations, a set of access operations to modify or read the dataset, and a plurality of storage systems, where: management operations can modify or query managed objects equivalently through any of the storage systems, access operations to read or modify the dataset operate equivalently through any of the storage systems, each storage system stores a separate copy of the dataset as a proper subset of the datasets stored and advertised for use by the storage system, and operations to modify managed objects or the dataset performed and completed through any one storage system are reflected in subsequent management objects to query the pod or subsequent access operations to read the dataset.

摘要： Preparing data for deduplication including: generating, by a storage system for a compressed data block, a padded compressed data block by padding the compressed data block to conform to a fixed block size, wherein the fixed block size is greater than a size of the compressed data block; storing, in the storage system, the padded compressed data block beginning at a block boundary of a storage device in the storage system; and performing block-based deduplication on the storage system, wherein the block-based deduplication determines whether the padded compressed data block matches one or more other padded compressed data blocks stored in the storage system.

摘要： A system and method for performing replication using mediums. A snapshot ‘S’ is selected for replication, and the anchor medium ‘M’ of S is identified. The replica storage array ‘R’ to which M is being replicated determines a list of medium extents which are available. R sends this list to an original storage array ‘O’ and O generates a list of medium extents which need to be sent to R. Only those medium extents corresponding to M which R does not already have will be sent from O to R. Also, R can obtain medium extents from other source storage arrays during the replication process.

摘要： A method for proactively rebuilding user data in a plurality of storage nodes of a storage cluster in a single chassis is provided. The method includes distributing user data and metadata throughout the plurality of storage nodes such that the plurality of storage nodes can read the user data, using erasure coding, despite loss of two of the plurality of storage nodes. The method includes determining to rebuild the user data for one of the plurality of storage nodes in the absences of an error condition. The method includes rebuilding the user data for the one of the plurality of storage nodes. A plurality of storage nodes within a single chassis that can proactively rebuild the user data stored within the storage nodes is also provided.
