Abstract: Various embodiments are provided for identifying matching tape volumes for data deduplication in an automated data storage library by a processor. A weak hash function on a selected block of streamed data from a host such that the selected block of streamed data with the weak hash function is further compressed to a reduced block of compressed data. N most similar tape volumes in a tape library may be matched according to the weak hash function for performing a data deduplication operation on the reduced block of compressed data between the N most similar tape volumes, wherein N is a positive integer.

Abstract: A new target volume for a new FlashCopy backup is dynamically allocated by performing at least one attempt to reuse an existing FlashCopy target volume containing older FlashCopy backups that have been previously ingested into a repository and are not currently being used as a source for at least one of a mount task, a clone task, and a restore task. If the at least one attempt to reuse the existing FlashCopy target volume fails, the new target volume is dynamically allocated from a global pool of FlashCopy backup target volumes.

Abstract translation: 新的FlashCopy备份的新目标卷通过执行至少一次尝试重新使用包含先前已被摄入到存储库中的较早版本的FlashCopy备份的现有FlashCopy目标卷来动态分配，目前尚未被用作至少一个源 的装载任务，克隆任务和还原任务。 如果至少一次尝试重新使用现有的FlashCopy目标卷失败，则会从FlashCopy备份目标卷的全局池中动态分配新的目标卷。

Abstract: Dynamically allocates a new Flashcopy backup target volume within the single repository for executing a new Flashcopy backup to avoid a collision with one of a mount operation, a restore operation, and a clone operation when dynamically allocating the new Flashcopy target volume for the new Flashcopy backup.

Abstract translation: 在单个存储库中动态分配新的Flashcopy备份目标卷，以执行新的Flashcopy备份，以避免与新的Flashcopy备份动态分配新的Flashcopy目标卷时与装载操作，还原操作和克隆操作之一发生冲突 。

Abstract: For efficient FlashCopy backup target volume allocation from a shared resource pool while ingesting a FlashCopy backup in a repository, for dynamically allocating a target volume for the new FlashCopy backup, a global pool of FlashCopy backup target volumes and a consistency group in the global pool of FlashCopy backup target volumes is maintained for use by a new FlashCopy backup upon encountering a collision while an existing FlashCopy target volume containing older FlashCopy backups are being ingested into the repository for dynamically allocating a target volume for the new FlashCopy backup.
