  • Patent number: 11657068
    Abstract: A method for converting from one asynchronous data replication technology to another is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, such a method includes utilizing a first asynchronous data replication technology to asynchronously replicate data from a primary volume to a secondary volume. The method initiates, at time T1, tracking of post-T1 changes to the primary volume and waits for all pre-T1 changes to the primary volume to be propagated to the secondary volume. When all pre-T1 changes have been propagated to the secondary volume, the method suspends operation of the first asynchronous data replication technology and replicates all post-T1 changes from the primary volume to the secondary volume. The method further sets up and initiates a second asynchronous data replication technology to asynchronously replicate data from the primary volume to the secondary volume. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed herein.

  • Patent number: 11656792
    Abstract: A data storage system provides persistent storage in bulk non-volatile memory. A controller of the data storage system receives a host write command and buffers associated host write data in both a first write cache in non-volatile memory and a mirrored second write cache in volatile memory. The controller destages the host write data to the bulk non-volatile memory from the second write cache but not the first write cache. The controller services relocation write commands requesting data relocation within the bulk non-volatile memory by reference to the second write cache. Servicing the relocation write commands includes buffering relocation write data in the second write cache but not the first write cache and destaging the relocation write data to the bulk non-volatile memory from the second write cache.

  • Patent number: 11656856
    Abstract: An approach is provided for optimizing a just-in-time (JIT) compilation process. A source pod in a container orchestrated execution environment is determined to be saturated. Profile data from a JIT compiler, a virtual machine state, and a native-compiled code state are collected. The profile data, virtual machine state, and native-compiled code state are stored in a data structure in a persistent data repository. In response to a restart or a redeployment of the source pod and an application running on the source pod, the stored profile data, virtual machine state, and native-compiled code state are reused in a new target pod, without requiring a monitoring and an identification of hot code areas in the application after the source pod becomes saturated.

  • Patent number: 11656947
    Abstract: A host system communicates to a production system that performs point-in-time copy operations to a backup system to generate a logical corruption protection (LCP) copy of a production copy that comprises a data set, wherein the point-in-time copy operations perform copying at a media level in which physical tracks are copied from the production system to the backup system, and wherein the point-in-time copy operations avoid using information on the data set or file structure that is included in a media on which the data set is stored. In response to a detection of a logical corruption in the data set, a recovery application executing in the host system recovers the data set from the LCP copy.
