APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CONCURRENT STORAGE POOL MIGRATION AND BACKUP

摘要

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for concurrent storage pool migration and backup. An association module associates at least one copy pool with a second storage pool. A migration module concurrently migrates at least one data file from a first storage pool to the second storage pool and copies the at least one data file to each copy pool associated with the second copy pool that does not already store an instance of the at least one data file. In one embodiment, the migration module further concurrently migrates each data file that the second storage pool cannot receive to a third storage pool.
