摘要:
A method for managing a data storage system includes copying data stored on a first storage subsystem to a second storage subsystem in an asynchronous mirroring process. A record is maintained on the second storage subsystem, indicative of locations at which the data have been updated on the first storage subsystem and have not yet been copied to the second storage subsystem. Upon receiving at the second storage subsystem, from a host processor, a request to access the data stored at a specified location on the data storage system, if the specified location is included in the record, the second storage subsystem initiates a synchronous transfer of the data at the specified location from the first storage subsystem.

A method for managing a data storage system includes maintaining a record on a secondary storage subsystem, which is predictive of locations to which data are to be written on a primary storage subsystem by a host processor. Upon receiving at the primary storage subsystem, from a host processor, the data to be written to a specified location, if the specified location is not included in the record, the primary storage subsystem sends to the secondary storage subsystem so as to cause the secondary storage subsystem to update the record. The primary storage subsystem signals the host processor that the data have been stored in the data storage system responsively to receiving the data and to receiving an acknowledgment from the secondary storage subsystem indicating that the record has been updated.

Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture wherein a command is received for writing data to a first storage location. A determination is made that previously written data is stored in the first storage location. The previously written data is copied to a second storage location, in response to determining that the previously written data is stored in the first storage location. The data is written to the first storage location, in response to copying the previously written data to the second storage location.

The present invention provides a method, an apparatus and a computer program product for transferring a digital object from a source to a destination. The method includes splitting the digital object into a plurality of parts forming a first set of parts and a set of remaining parts. The method creates a credential record defining a relationship between the plurality of parts. The credential record includes retrieval information for the set of remaining parts. The method further includes transferring a first set of the parts along with the credential record to the destination using at least one push path. The method further includes fetching the set of remaining parts at the destination using the credential record to connect the destination to the source via at least one pull path. Further, the method includes recreating the digital object at the destination using the first set of parts, the credential record and a set of remaining parts.

A method for storing data received from a host processor at a primary storage subsystem in a data storage system includes writing the data to a first volatile cache memory in the primary storage subsystem and copying the data from the primary storage subsystem to a secondary storage subsystem. The second subsystem writes the copied data to a second volatile cache memory and returns an acknowledgment to the primary storage subsystem responsively to writing the copied data to the second volatile cache memory and prior to saving the data in the second non-volatile storage media. The primary storage subsystem signals the host processor that the data have been stored in the data storage system responsively to the acknowledgment from the secondary storage subsystem.

A method for managing a data storage system includes maintaining a record predictive of locations to which data are to be written on the primary storage subsystem by a host processor. Upon receiving data from the host processor at the primary storage subsystem to be written to a specified location on the first non-volatile storage media, if the specified location is not included in the record, the record is updated responsively to the specified location. The primary storage subsystem signals the host processor that the data have been stored in the data storage system responsively to receiving the data and, if the specified location was not included in the record, responsively to updating the record.
