Systems, methods, apparatus and software can utilize an extent guard to prevent modification (including relocation) of data in the storage resource while a third-party copy operation directed at the storage resource is occurring. A data transport mechanism such as a data restore application provides an extent list to the extent guard, which monitors read and/or write activity to storage resources described by the extent list. The data transport mechanism requests a data mover to perform a third-party copy operation whereby data is moved from a data source to the storage resource. If a modification attempt is made on the portion of the storage resource described by the extent list, the extent guard stalls the modification attempt until the third-party copy operation is aborted.
