Abstract: Method and system for asynchronously dispersing Disaster Recovery (DR) enabling data between a plurality of storage sites. The method comprises: receiving, at a primary storage site, a written block and a write frequency counter associated with the written block. In case the write frequency counter is below a threshold: receiving information dispersal parameters including number indicative of a size difference between said written block and DR enabling data based on said written block; number of slices to slice said DR enabling data into and data indicative of DR storage sites of said plurality of storage sites for storing said slices. Further calculating DR enabling data based on written block, wherein DR enabling data is larger than said written block by size difference; slicing DR enabling data in accordance with number of slices; and dispersing slices in accordance with data indicative of DR storage sites.

Abstract: A computerized system capable of continuous data protection (CDP) and method of operating thereof are provided. A CDP data structure is stored in memory. The CDP data structure includes a base snapshot acquired at a first point in time and a log. The log includes a first log region and a second log region. The log is associated with an index, which includes a first index region stored on a secondary memory and associated with the first log region, a second index region stored on a primary memory and associated with the second log region. The first log region and the second log region are updated responsive to an update of a dynamic checkpoint when the checkpoint update criterion is met. The first index region is updated responsive to the update of the first log region and the second log region, and the second index region is updated upon the update of the first index region.

Abstract: A method of controlling volatile memory (VM) and VM controller operatively connectable to VM. The method includes: intercepting reset signal intended to cause reset of, at least, VM; assessing transfer-related (TR) state related to the VM; blocking the intercepted reset signal from reaching VM if the assessed TR state does not meet predefined criterion, and transferring the reset signal to VM if the assessed TR state meets the predefined criterion. The VM controller is configured to: receive a reset signal originating in computer system and intended to cause reset of, at least, the VM; detect if the VM has been powered-up during a predetermined timeframe prior to the receipt of the reset signal; and block the received reset signal from reaching the VM if the VM powering-up has not been detected and transfer the reset signal to the VM if the VM powering-up has been detected.
