Snapshot management in hierarchical storage infrastructure
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for snapshot management in a storage infrastructure. A computer identifies one or more snapshots within layers of the storage infrastructure. The computer determines one or more relationships of the one or more identified snapshots of the storage infrastructure. The determined relationships include, at least in part, relations of one or more entities included in the one or more snapshots to additional one or more entities in the one or more snapshots of the storage infrastructure. The computer identifies the one or more duplicate snapshots by utilizing the one or more determined relationships of the one or more identified snapshots. The computer consolidates the one or more identified duplicate snapshots in the storage infrastructure. In another embodiment, the computer identifies one or more inconsistent snapshots, and consolidates the one or more inconsistent snapshots in the storage infrastructure.
