摘要： A method including, responsive to receiving a request identifying a volume and indicating a command to take a snapshot of the volume, mapping a second logical grouping of data to reference the first logical grouping of data, and remapping the first volume to map to the second logical grouping of data instead of the first logical grouping of data such that the first volume remains addressable with similar access permissions before and after creating the snapshot. The method also includes, in response to receiving a write request targeting the second logical grouping, splitting the second logical grouping into a plurality of ranges including a first range and a second range; wherein the first range of the second logical grouping maps to the first logical grouping, and the write request is performed on the second range of the second logical grouping.

摘要： Maintaining a synchronous replication relationship between two or more storage systems, including: receiving, by at least one of a plurality of storage systems across which a dataset will be synchronously replicated, timing information for at least one of the plurality of storage systems; and establishing, based on the timing information, a synchronous replication lease describing a period of time during which the synchronous replication relationship is valid, wherein a request to modify the dataset may only be acknowledged after a copy of the dataset has been modified on each of the storage systems.

摘要： Systems, methods, and computer readable storage mediums for maintaining the history of remapped data in a storage system. A first portion of a first medium may be remapped to a second medium as part of read optimization operations, wherein the second medium is younger than the first medium. A tag associated with the first portion of the first medium may be retained when the first portion is remapped to the second medium. When the second medium is replicated to another storage array, the first portion of the first medium may be prevented from being replicated based on the tag identifying the first portion as being part of a previous replication operation.

摘要： Systems, methods, and computer readable storage mediums for optimizing performance in a storage system. A volume may be mapped to an anchor medium through an indirection layer. When a snapshot is taken of the volume, the allocation of a new anchor medium is delayed until a write operation targeting the volume is received. When a write operation targeting the volume is received, a new anchor medium may be allocated for only a portion of the volume corresponding to the portion of the volume which is targeted by the write operation. Also, when a snapshot is taken of the volume, read optimization operations are performed only the portions of the volume which have changed since the previous snapshot.

摘要： A system and method for performing coarse-grained deduplication of volume regions. A storage controller detects that a first region of a first volume is identical to a second region of a second volume, wherein the first volume points to a first medium and the second volume points to a second medium. In response to detecting the identical regions, the storage controller stores an indication that the first range of the first medium underlies the second range of the second medium. Also in response to detecting the identical regions, the mappings associated with the second range of the second medium are invalidated.

摘要： A system, apparatus, and product for allowing access to a partially replicated dataset, including: detecting, by a target storage system, that a dataset will be replicated from a source storage system to the target storage system; exposing, by the target storage system, the dataset for user operations prior to receiving the entire dataset; receiving, by the target storage system, a request to read a portion of the dataset that has not been received by the target storage system; and retrieving, by the target storage system, the portion of the dataset.

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.
