    摘要: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for replicating tracks from a first storage to a second and third storages. A determination is made of a track in the first storage to transfer to the second storage as part of a point-in-time copy relationship and of a stride of tracks including the target track. The stride of tracks including the target track is staged from the first storage to a cache according to the point-in-time copy relationship. The staged stride is destaged from the cache to the second storage. The stride in the cache is transferred to the third storage as part of a mirror copy relationship. The stride of tracks in the cache is demoted in response to destaging the stride of the tracks in the cache to the second storage and transferring the stride of tracks in the cache to the third storage.

    摘要: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for performing a failover between a first storage system and a second storage system. Data is synchronized between the first storage system and the second storage system. A failover is performed from the first storage system to the second storage system in response to a failover event at the first storage system while synchronizing the data. A determination is made that a first storage unit of the first storage system is inoperable and that that a second storage unit of the first storage system is operable in response to the failover event. In response to determining that the second storage unit is operable, a resynchronization is initiated to copy updates to a second storage unit of the second storage system mirroring the second storage unit of the first storage system to the second storage unit of the first storage system.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a system includes a processor and logic configured to receive a request to write data to a file block on a multi-tier file system where a first logical block is associated with the file block, and when the request is the first write request for the file block after creation of the snapshot of the file block: create a second logical block, determine a measure of access requests to be directed to a logical block allocated for the snapshot versus a logical block allocated for new data on the file block, the logical block allocated for the snapshot and the logical block allocated for new data on the file block being uniquely chosen from: the first and second logical block, and send the measure of access requests to the automatic tiering module when so determined. Other systems, methods, and computer program products are described in more embodiments.

    摘要: A primary storage controller is maintained in a copy relationship with a secondary storage controller, wherein the primary and secondary storage controllers are coupled to a host that is configurable to use the secondary storage controller instead of the primary storage controller. The primary storage controller determines occurrence of at least one condition in the primary storage controller, wherein the at least one condition occurs prior to a failure of the host to perform an Input/Output (I/O) operation with respect to at least one storage volume of the primary storage controller. The primary storage controller communicates the occurrence of the at least one condition to the host, wherein in response to the communicating the host is configured to determine whether to use the secondary storage controller instead of the primary storage controller based on the occurrence of the at least one condition.

    摘要: For reserving storage space, a determination module determines if required storage space is available for a write in response to logical storage address for the write being unallocated. The logical storage address is a thin provisioned storage space. A reservation module reserves the required storage space for the write in response to determining that the required storage space is available. In addition, the reservation module may communicate an allocation success in response to determining the required storage space is available. The allocation success is communicated prior to allocating the required storage space. The reservation module may communicate a write failure in response to determining the required storage space is not available.
