    摘要: Provided are a method, system, and program for forming a consistency group of data. A command is received to form a consistency group with respect to data received at a first storage site that is mirrored to a second storage site. A first data structure is provided indicating updates to the first storage site not included in the consistency group that are received after the command and a second data structure is provided indicating updates to the first storage site in the consistency group to be formed. A command is transmitted to cause data copied to the second storage site that is part of the consistency group to be copied to a third storage site. Indication is received when the data in the second storage site that is part of the consistency group is copied to the third storage site.

    摘要: Provided are a method, system, and program for establishing a point-in-time copy. A source relationship data structure and target relationship data structure are generated when establishing a point-in-time copy relationship between source and target storage areas, wherein the source and target relationship data structures each include an indicator for each source storage area and corresponding target storage area in the point-in-time copy relationship. The source and target relationship data structures are initialized to set the indicator for each source storage area and corresponding target storage area in the point-in-time copy relationship to a first value. A determination is made that data was written to one target storage area after establishing the point-in-time copy relationship. The indicators in the source and target relationship data structures corresponding to the source storage area and corresponding target storage area to which data was written are set to a second value.

    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for detecting mismatches in a mirror volume. A receive module receives a start indicator from a primary storage system. The start indicator includes a starting location of a first block to be modified on a track in a secondary storage system. The first block corresponds to an identically located first block of a modified record in the primary storage system. The tracks the first blocks on the primary and secondary storage systems each comprise irregular count key data (“CKD”) tracks. A compare module compares the first block location indicated by the start indicator with block locations listed in track metadata. The track metadata describes user records on the irregular CKD tracks of the secondary storage system. An alert module generates an alert in response to the first block not aligning with a beginning block of a record on the secondary storage system.
