摘要： Non-disruptive data migration moves are performed form a source DASD to target DASD in a data subsystem. Both source and target DASDs comprise a cache and a nonvolatile store (NVS). Relative to the host, the target DASD generally operates as a source, managing requests for access to source DASD data by issuing I/O requests to the source DASD. First, the target DASD initiates a background data transfer, where data is copied from the source DASD to the target DASD preparing the target DASD to replace the source DASD. The data transfer includes copying data items directly from the source DASD's cache to that of the target DASD's cache, as well as copying data items from the source DASD's NVS to the target DASD's NVS. During background data transfer, the host can still perform data access operations, such as reads and writes, using the target DASD. Namely, for data already copied from the source DASD to the target DASD, the host reads this data from the target DASD. Host requests to read data not yet copied to the source DASD causes staging of the data from the source DASD to the target DASD. For host write requests, the data to be written to the target DASD, if no source data is needed to complete the write. To satisfy host write requests requiring data not yet copied from the source DASD, the data is copied from the source DASD to the target DASD.

摘要： Primary and secondary data processing systems are coupled via a communication system. Data storage in both systems is provided by a log structured array (LSA) system that stores data in compressed form. Each time data are updated within LSA, the updated data are stored in a data storage location different from the original data. Selected data recorded in a primary data storage of the primary system is remote dual copied to the secondary system for congruent storage in a secondary data storage, such as for disaster recovery purposes. The primary systems creates a remote copying session. Within such remote copying session, a series of "pending write update" sessions are ESTABLISHED. All data updated within each pending write update session is a consistency group of data. Within each pending write update session update data are retentively stored in both the primary and secondary systems (such as in a non-volatile cache). Addressability of such update data within a pending write update session is through separate pending write directories. The main (primary and secondary) directory for data is not updated such that all original (not updated) data are addressable. A COMMIT command terminates each pending write update session. Congruence of the sequence of updating in the primary system is maintained in the secondary system updating procedure.

摘要： A data storage system atomically suspends multiple duplex pairs across either a single storage subsystem or multiple storage subsystems. The duplex pairs are suspended such that the data on the secondary DASDs of the duplex pairs is maintained in a sequence consistent order. A host processor in the data storage system running an application generates records and record updates to be written to the primary DASDs of the duplex pairs. The storage controller directs copies of the records and record updates to the secondary DASDs of the duplex pairs. Sequence consistency is maintained on the secondary DASDs by quiescing the duplex pairs and then suspending the duplex pairs with change recording. Quiescing the duplex pairs allows any current write I/O in progress to complete to the primary DASD. The storage controller then locks out any subsequent write I/O from the host processor by raising a long busy signal to such subsequent write requests. Suspending the duplex pairs with change recording directs the storage controller to mark the physical address of the primary DASD which the application in the host processor updates between the time the duplex pair is suspended and then is reestablished.

摘要： A method for assuring consistency between a primary volume and a remote secondary volume wherein a host CPU manages track-to-track transfers using loosely-coupled, storage control unit mediated data paths. The method includes initial volume synchronization in which concurrent updates to primary tracks are serialized by the copy progression at the secondary volume according to address. The method further includes volume resynchronization in the event of extrinsic error, fault, or the like in which bit maps and timestamps are used to determine the status of primary tracks either lost while in flight to the secondary volume or updated during a volume suspension interval. The bit maps and timestamps preserve the most recent version copy order of the tracks on the secondary volume. CONCURRENT UPDATING

摘要： A remote data shadowing system provides storage based, real time disaster recovery capability. Record updates at a primary site cause write I/O operations in a storage subsystem therein. The write I/O operations are time stamped and the time, sequence, and physical locations of the record updates are collected in a primary data mover. The primary data mover groups sets of the record updates and associated control information based upon a predetermined time interval, the primary data mover appending a prefix header to the record(updates thereby forming self describing record sets. The self describing record sets are transmitted to a remote secondary site wherein consistency groups are formed such that the record updates are ordered so that the record updates can be shadowed in an order consistent with the order the record updates cause write I/O operations at the primary site.

摘要： A disaster recovery system providing asynchronous remote data shadowing between a primary and a secondary site uses a pair of track arrays for each primary data storage device of a remote copy pair to monitor which record updates are in transit between the primary site and the secondary site. A host processor at the primary site of the disaster recovery system transfers a sequentially consistent order of copies of record updates to the secondary site for back-up purposes. The copied record updates are stored on the secondary data storage devices which form remote copy pairs with the primary data storage devices at the primary site. One track array, the active track array, is used to set elements according to which tracks on the primary data storage device receive record updates from the host processor at the primary site. The other track array, the recovery track array, designates which record updates comprise the copied record updates currently transferred from the primary site to the secondary site for data shadowing and is used for recovery should an error interrupt the transfer. The track arrays are toggled once the consistency group transfer completes, the recovery track array becoming the active track array and the active track array becoming the recovery track array.
