UTILIZATION OF DISK BUFFER FOR BACKGROUND REPLICATION PROCESSES |
| 摘要 |
A method for accelerating a background replication process on storage volumes during application I/O (input/output) requests includes reading requested data from a first storage volume. The method stores the requested data in an embedded memory device, and providing the requested data to the application. The method receives a read request from the background replication process. The method responds to the read request from the background replication process by providing data from the embedded memory device to the requesting background replication process concurrently with providing data to the requesting application. The method stores, by the background replication process, the data provided from the embedded memory device onto a second storage volume. |

1. A method for accelerating a background replication process on storage volumes during application I/O (input/output) requests, the method comprising:
reading requested data from a first storage volume; storing the requested data in an embedded memory device, and providing the requested data to the application; receiving a read request from the background replication process; responding to the read request from the background replication process by providing data from the embedded memory device to the requesting background replication process concurrently with providing data to the requesting application; and storing, by the background replication process, the data provided from the embedded memory device onto a second storage volume. |
