Abstract: Exemplary method, system, and computer program product embodiments for efficient track destage in secondary storage in a more effective manner, are provided. In one embodiment, by way of example only, for temporal bits employed with sequential bits for controlling the timing for destaging the track in a primary storage, the temporal bits and sequential bits are transferred from the primary storage to the secondary storage. The temporal bits are allowed to age on the secondary storage. Additional system and computer program product embodiments are disclosed and provide related advantages.
