    Abstract: An application may store data to a dataset comprising a plurality of volumes stored on a plurality of storage systems. The application may request a dataset image of the dataset, the dataset image comprising a volume image of each volume of the dataset. A dataset image manager operates with a plurality of volume image managers in parallel to produce the dataset image, each volume image manager executing on a storage system. The plurality of volume image managers respond by performing requested operations and sending responses to the dataset image manager in parallel. Each volume image manager on a storage system may manage and produce a volume image for each volume of the dataset stored to the storage system. If a volume image for any volume of the dataset fails, or a timeout period expires, a cleanup procedure is performed to delete any successful volume images.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a recovery process with selective ordering and concurrent operations in order to recover from a failure. Representations of active log structures are rebuilt within memory according to ordering values assigned to I/O operations logged within the active log structures. Representation of certain active log structures may be concurrently rebuilt based upon the active log structures comprising I/O operations that are non-overlapping within a distributed file system, have no dependencies, relate to different services, and/or target independent files. Representation of stale log structures are concurrently rebuilt within memory. While rebuilding the log structures and executing the I/O operations, a key value map is concurrently rebuilt within the memory for locating data of the I/O operations. Concurrent operations during the recovery process reduces the time to complete the recovery process, and thus reduces client downtime during the recovery process.

    Abstract: Asynchronous snapshot invalidation techniques are described. According to various such techniques, an enhanced file handle structure may be defined that includes a snapshot generation ID that is to comprise a value that singularly identifies a snapshot performed at a particular point in time. In some embodiments, when a snapshot ID assigned to that snapshot is reused at a subsequent point in time, a different snapshot generation ID may be assigned to that subsequent snapshot. With respect to an in-core cache, the differing snapshot generation IDs may eliminate unacceptable ambiguity regarding respective file information sets corresponding to the initial and subsequent snapshots sharing the same snapshot ID. As a result, obsolete file information sets may be cleared from the in-core cache asynchronously, enabling improved performance. The embodiments are not limited in this context.
