  • Adaptive, self learning consistency point triggers
    Patent number: 9983817
    Abstract: Presented herein are methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and devices for allocating resources to a particular volume and triggering a consistency point based on the amount given to each volume, thus providing dynamic consistency point triggers. Methods for providing dynamic consistency point triggers are disclosed which include: determining a volume's capacity to utilize resources based on the volume's performance; receiving an allocation of the divided resources based on total system resources available within the storage system and the volume's performance; and triggering a consistency point upon exhausting a threshold percentage of the received/allocated resources.
    Type: Grant
