Provided are a method, system, and program for migrating source data to target data. A write request is received to write application data to source data not yet migrated to the target data. Information is generated for the write request indicating the source data to which the application data is written. The application data is written to the source data. A request is received to migrate source data to target data and indication is returned to retry the request to migrate in response to determining that the requested source data to migrate overlaps source data indicated in the generated information for one write request.

Provided are a method, system, and program for processing a request to write to a source file in a storage system. A determination is made as to whether a retention rule is provided for the source file. In response to determining that one retention rule is provided for the source file, a versioned file name is generated, wherein a versioned file comprises the source file at a point-in-time. A command is transmitted to a file system to copy the source file data to a versioned file having the generated versioned file name and the generated versioned file name is added to a retention index file. The retention index file is processed to determine whether to purge versioned files according to the retention rule provided for the source file.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for system recovery. An operating system and a backup copy of the operating system are both maintained in a partition of a computational device. A boot loader receives an indication to load the backup copy of the operating system. The boot loader loads the backup copy of the operating system. The computational device is rebooted with the loaded backup copy of the operating system.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for enabling access to remote storage for use with a backup program. Access is enabled to remote storage offered by an Internet Service on a remote server over the Internet. Indication is maintained of files on a source drive in a backup set to store on the remote storage that have a real-time backup status. Te backup set is stored on the remote storage. A modification to a file on the source drive is detected and a determination is made from the indication whether the file being modified is indicated as having the real-time backup status. The modification is transferred to the file to the backup set at the remote storage in response to determining that the file being modified is indicated as having the real time status.

Provided are techniques for transferring data. It is determined whether an indicators map is to be associated with a source file that is being opened, wherein the indicators map indicates which source blocks of the source file have been updated since last being transferred to a target file. In response to determining that an indicators map is to be associated with the source file, it is determined whether the indicators map exists. In response to determining that the indicators map exists, it is determined whether the indicators map is to be trusted based on a last modified time and a last source file size stored in the indicators map and the source file. In response to determining that the indicators map is to be trusted, the indicators map is initialized. Then, in response to receiving a write for the source file, the indicators map is updated to indicate which portion of the source file has been modified.
摘要:
Provided are a method, system, and program for replicating a file. A file is copied to a target storage file system stored as a base file. A reference file comprising the copied file is generated at a local storage. An update is applied to the file at the local storage. A delta file is generated indicating differences between the updated file at the local storage and the reference file. A file system command is used to transmit the delta file to the target storage file system store to store in a directory of the target storage file system, wherein the file in the local storage is replicated at the target storage by a combination of the base file and the delta file.
