摘要:
Storing recovery data for a data center includes providing synchronous data from the data center to a local destination, providing chunks of data from the local destination to a first remote destination, different from the first remote destination, and providing chunks of data from the data center to a second remote destination. At least some of the destinations may maintain a plurality of maps, where each of the maps associates synchronous data being provided to the local destination with a specific chunk of data. In response to receiving an indicator in connection with creation of a new chunk of data, the at least some of the destinations that maintain a plurality of maps may point to a new map. There may be two maps or more than two maps.

Providing storage configurations for a data center includes providing synchronous data transfer from the data center to a local destination, establishing a first connection between the data center and a remote destination to provide chunks of data from the data center to a remote destination, establishing a second connection between the local destination and the remote destination to provide chunks of data from the local destination to the remote destination, and enabling at least one of the first and second connections to transfer chunks of data to the remote destination.
摘要:
Toggling between a first storage configuration and a second storage configuration includes disabling asynchronous data transfer to a third storage group from one of the first storage group and the second storage group and enabling asynchronous data transfer to the third storage group from an other one of the first storage group and second storage group. Toggling between a first storage configuration and a second storage configuration may also include, prior to disabling asynchronous data transfer to the third storage group, transferring pending data to the third storage group. Toggling between a first storage configuration and a second storage configuration may also include, after enabling asynchronous data transfer to the third storage group, transferring data to the third storage group that had been pending prior to disabling asynchronous data transfer to the third storage group.

摘要:
Handling failure of a primary group at a first data center may be simulated by cloning the at least one storage volume at a second data center, cloning at least one storage volume at a third data center, cloning at least one of: buffers used for providing data to the asynchronous backup group and maps used to maintain a record of data sent to the synchronous backup group but not yet sent to the asynchronous backup group; and simulating resuming work at one of the second data center and the third data center using at least one of clones of the buffers and clones of the maps.

Storing recovery data includes providing chunks of data to a remote destination, where each chunk of data represents data written before a first time and after a second time and where the second time for one of the particular chunks corresponds to a first time for a subsequent one of the particular chunks, providing synchronous data to a local destination, and providing an indicator to the local destination in connection with creation of a new chunk of data for storage at the remote destination. The local destination may maintain a plurality of maps, where each of the maps associates synchronous data being provided thereto with a specific chunk of data. In response to receiving an indicator in connection with creation of a new chunk of data, the local destination may point to a new map. There may be two maps or more than two maps.

Described are techniques used in performing data replication processing. Data is replicated on a recovery site from a production site. When a disaster occurs, the state of the replication processing is determined and a restart copy of the data is made available from the recover site. Processing continues based on whether protection mode is desired such that the system executes using the recovery site as the restart with a replicated copy of the data. Data is propagated from the recovery site to the production site to resume operations and replication processing originating from the production site.
