    Abstract: A copy function is automatically selected according to a policy associated with data to be copied. The apparatus comprises an identification module configured to identify available copy functions in response to a data copy request that includes a predefined copy policy, a comparison module configured to compare each copy function of a storage device to attributes of the predefined copy policy, a selection module configured to automatically select a copy function that satisfies the predefined copy policy, and a relationship module configured to establish a copy relationship between the determined copy function and the data copy request. A policy generation module may be included and configured to read a set of required attributes from an application and to establish the predefined copy policy based on the set of required attributes from the application.

    Abstract translation: 根据与要复制的数据相关的策略自动选择复制功能。 该装置包括:识别模块,被配置为响应于包括预定义复制策略的数据复制请求来识别可用复制功能;比较模块,被配置为比较存储设备的每个复制功能与预定义复制策略的属性;选择模块 用于自动选择满足预定义复制策略的复制函数;关系模块,用于建立所确定的复制功能与数据复制请求之间的复制关系。 策略生成模块可以被包括并且被配置为从应用程序读取一组所需的属性并基于来自应用程序的所需的一组属性来建立预定义的复制策略。

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for moving data between storage devices when a source storage device is becoming a bottleneck. One or more blocks of data are identified as blocks to be moved or replicated from the source storage device to one or more other storage devices. The one or more other storage devices are selected and copy services are used to move the blocks from the source storage device to the one or more other storage devices. A metadata store is updated with locations of the blocks that have been moved.

    Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for managing the copying of writes from primary storages to secondary storages across different networks. Information is maintained on a first group of at least one primary storage, at least one primary device managing Input/Output (I/O) access to the at least one primary storage, and at least one corresponding secondary storage to which writes to the at least one primary storage are copied and a second group of at least one primary storage, at least one primary device managing Input/Output (I/O) access to the at least one primary storage, and at least one corresponding secondary storage to which writes to the at least one primary storage are copied. A failure notification is received from one of the primary devices in the first or second group of a failure to copy a write from the primary device to the secondary device. A freeze command is issued over a first network, using a first network protocol, to the at least one primary device in the first group to stop copying writes to the corresponding at least one secondary device. A freeze command is issued over a second network, using a second network protocol, to the at least one primary device in the second group to stop copying writes to the corresponding at least one secondary device.

    Abstract: Provided are a system and article of manufacture for copying storage, wherein a first unit receives data updates from a second unit. The data updates are stored in a plurality of physical storage locations associated with the first unit. Links are generated to at least one of the plurality of physical storage locations to achieve consistent data between the first unit and the second unit.
