  • Switching visibility between virtual data storage entities
    Patent number: 8806162
    Abstract: Visibility of a data storage entity on a first storage system is switched to a replicated data storage entity on a second storage system. Data from the data storage entity is replicated from the first storage system to the second storage system using a common serial number. The data storage entity is hidden from the first storage system by concealing the common serial number. An ejection of the data storage entity from the first storage system is automated, and the replicated data storage entity is introduced to the second storage system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 8, 2012
    Date of Patent: August 12, 2014
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation

  • SWITCHING VISIBILITY BETWEEN VIRTUAL DATA STORAGE ENTITIES
    Publication number: 20120047338
    Abstract: Various embodiments for switching visibility between virtual data storage entities in a data storage environment using a processor device are provided. Visibility of a data storage entity on a first storage system is switched to a replicated data storage entity on a second storage system. Data from the data storage entity is replicated from the first storage system to the second storage system using a common serial number. The data storage entity is hidden from the first storage system by concealing the common serial number. An ejection of the data storage entity from the first storage system is automated, and the replicated data storage entity is introduced to the second storage system.
