    Abstract: The relative health of data storage drives may be determined based, at least in some aspects, on data access information and/or other drive operation information. In some examples, upon receiving the operation information from a computing device, a health level of a drive may be determined. The health level determination may be based at least in part on operating information received from a client entity. Additionally, a storage space allocation instruction or operation may be determined for execution. The allocation instruction or operation determined to be performed may be based at least in part on the determined health level.

    Abstract: Persistent storage for a master copy is provided using operation numbers. A master copy can include a persistent key-value store such as a B-tree with references to corresponding data. When provisioning a slave copy, the master copy sends a point-in-time copy of the B-tree to the slave copy, which stores a copy of the B-tree, allocates the necessary space, and updates the references of the B-tree to point to a local storage before the data is transferred. When writing the data to persistent storage, a snapshot created on the master copy is an operation that is replicated to the slave copy. The snapshot is generated using a volume view that includes changes to chunks of data of the master copy since a previous snapshot, as determined using the operation number for the previous snapshot. Data (and metadata) for the snapshot is written to persistent storage while new input/output operations are processed.

    Abstract: Techniques, including systems and methods, for capturing data sets include performing a client-side two-phase commit to ensure one or more data consistency conditions. A logical volume may represent a data set that is distributed among a plurality of physical storage devices. One or more client devices are instructed to block at least acknowledgment of write operations. When the one or more client devices have blocked at least acknowledgment of write operations, one or more servers in communication with the physical storage devices are instructed to capture corresponding portions of the data set. When the servers have been instructed to capture corresponding portions of the data set, the client devices are instructed to resume at least acknowledgment of write operations.

    Abstract translation: 用于捕获数据集的技术(包括系统和方法)包括执行客户端两阶段提交以确保一个或多个数据一致性条件。 逻辑卷可以表示分布在多个物理存储设备之间的数据集。 指示一个或多个客户端设备至少阻止写入操作的确认。 当一个或多个客户端设备至少阻止写操作的确认时,指示与物理存储设备通信的一个或多个服务器捕获数据集的相应部分。 当指示服务器捕获数据集的相应部分时,指示客户端设备至少恢复写入操作的确认。
