  • System and method for stretching storage protection configurations in a storage cluster
    Patent number: 11740803
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for copying a storage protection configuration for one or more storage resources from a first storage array to at least a second storage array in a storage cluster. A communication failure between at least a pair of storage arrays may be detected, thus defining a surviving storage array and at least one failed storage array. The communication failure between the surviving storage array and the at least one failed storage array may be resolved. The storage protection configuration may be synchronized from the surviving storage array to the at least one failed storage array. The storage protection configuration for the one or more storage resources of each storage array of the at least a pair of storage arrays may be arbitrated.
