  • Configuration replication across distributed storage systems
    Patent number: 10187256
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a change in a primary configuration of a primary storage node while the primary storage node is operational, wherein primary data stored in the primary storage node is to be backed up as backup data in a backup storage node. The method includes locating at least one identifier in the change that identifies the primary storage node. The method includes replacing the at least one identifier in the change that identifies the primary storage node with an identification of the backup storage node to create an updated configuration change. The method includes updating a backup configuration of the backup storage node based on the updated configuration change.

  • CLONE VOLUME MERGING
    Publication number: 20160246683
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for clone volume merging. For example, a parent volume may be exposed to users for read and write access to data stored within the parent volume. The parent volume may be cloned to create a cloned volume of the parent volume. The cloned volume may be exposed to users for data access. Responsive to receiving a clone volume merge command, data blocks within the cloned volume may be compared with data blocks within the parent volume to identify delta data blocks within the cloned volume that are not within the parent volume. The delta data blocks may be copied from the cloned volume to the parent volume, which may increase performance and/or decrease time taken to generate a volume with both common data blocks and the delta data blocks, as compared to copying data from the parent volume to the cloned volume.
