A method, system, computer program product, and computer program storage device for receiving and processing I/O requests from a host device and providing data consistency in both a primary site and a secondary site, while migrating a SRC (Synchronous Peer to Peer Remote Copy) from a backend storage subsystem to a storage virtualization appliance. While transferring SRC from the backend storage subsystem to the storage virtualization appliance, all new I/O requests are saved in both a primary cache memory and a secondary cache memory, allowing a time window during which the SRC at the backend storage subsystem can be stopped and the secondary storage device is made as a readable and writable medium. The primary cache memory and secondary cache memory operates separately on each I/O request in write-through, read-write or no-flush mode.
