    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include conveying first data from local regions of a local volume of a local storage system to a remote storage system having a remote volume with remote regions in a one-to-one correspondence with the local regions. While conveying the first data, a request is received to update a given local region, and the given local region is marked. Subsequent to conveying the first data, a local snapshot referencing the local regions is created, and second data is conveyed from the marked local region to the remote storage system.

    Abstract: For efficient handing of semi-asynchronous RAID write failures using a processor device in a computing environment, a write operation is committed on a primary copy of data on a primary entity while sending the data to a secondary entity while awaiting an acknowledgment by the secondary entity. The acknowledgment indicates to the primary entity that metadata for the write operation has arrived at the secondary entity without necessarily indicating the data has arrived at the secondary entity. The acknowledgment is sent from the secondary entity regardless of a write failure and allowing the secondary entity to perform a recovery operation if a write failure occurs.

    Abstract translation: 为了在计算环境中使用处理器设备有效地处理半异步RAID写入故障,在主实体上的数据的主副本上提交写入操作,同时在等待第二实体的确认的同时将数据发送到辅助实体 。 确认向主实体指示用于写入操作的元数据已经到达次级实体,而不必指示数据已经到达次级实体。 无论写入故障如何,都从次级实体发送确认,并允许辅助实体在发生写入失败时执行恢复操作。

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include arranging a first multiple of storage slices to store a second multiple of logical volumes, and assigning a respective offset to each of the logical volumes. Each of the logical volumes are then configured to start storing data at a first of the storage slices indicated by the assigned respective offset. In operation, data can be stored to a slice indicated by the assigned offset and an internal volume offset. Subsequent to configuring each of the logical volumes, one the storage slices having a highest storage utilization is identified, and one of the logical volumes having a highest number of physical regions in the identified storage slice is reconfigured to start storing the data at a second of the storage slices.
