Exemplary storage network architectures, data architectures, and methods for creating and using snapdifference files in storage networks are described. One exemplary method may be implemented in a processor in a storage network. The method comprises detecting a failure in a source volume, and in response to the failure: terminating communication with one or more applications that generate I/O requests to the source volume; refreshing the source volume; copying a backup data set to the source volume, and while the backup data set is being copied: activating a new snapdifference file; restarting communication with one or more applications that generate I/O requests to the source volume; and recording I/O operations to the source volume in the snapdifference file.
