    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for resynchronization. For example, a request may be received to create pseudo snapshots of a first consistency group, hosted by a first storage controller, and a second consistency group, hosted by a second storage controller, having a synchronous replication relationship with the first consistency group. Incoming client write requests are logged within an intercept tracking log at the first storage controller. After a first drain without hold of incoming write requests is performed, a first pseudo common snapshot of the second consistency group is created. After a second drain without hold of incoming write operations is performed, a second pseudo common snapshot of the first consistency group and the intercept tracking log is created. The pseudo snapshots and the intercept tracking log (e.g., indicating a delta between the pseudo snapshots) are used to resynchronize the first and second consistency groups.

    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for snapshot creation. For example, a request may be received to create a snapshot of a first storage object, hosted by a first storage controller, having a synchronous replication relationship with a second storage object hosted by a second storage controller. A coordinator workflow is initialized to issue a drain and hold request to a splitter. Responsive to an indication that the splitter has stopped processing and started queuing incoming write operations and has drained current write operations based upon the drain and hold request, snapshot creation requests are sent to the first storage controller and the second storage controller. Responsive to the first storage controller creating a first snapshot of the first storage object and the second storage controller creating a second snapshot of the second storage object, the splitter may be resumed to process write operations.
