Abstract: One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for moving a consistency group having a replication relation. For example, a first consistency group of storage objects (e.g., files, logical unit numbers (LUNs), etc.) within first storage may have a replication relationship with a second consistency group within second storage (e.g., the second consistency group is maintained as a synchronously replicated copy of the first consistency group). A volume copy operation, a single file move on demand command, a single file restore command, or other functionality is used to move the first consistency group from the first storage to third storage, such as for load balancing, to create a moved first consistency group within the third storage. A new replication relationship is established between the moved first consistency group and the second consistency group, and the moved first consistency group and the second consistency group are resynchronized.
