An apparatus comprises at least one processing device configured to identify a snapshot lineage comprising snapshots of a storage volume, the snapshot lineage comprising (i) a local snapshot lineage stored on a storage system and (ii) cloud snapshot lineages stored on cloud storage external to the storage system, to select at least one snapshot that is to be copied from the local snapshot lineage, to determine at least two of the cloud snapshot lineages as destinations for the selected snapshot, to generate a snapshot copy job for copying the selected snapshot to the at least two cloud snapshot lineages, and to process the snapshot copy job by reading data of the selected snapshot stored in the local snapshot lineage once and writing the data of the selected snapshot to the at least two cloud snapshot lineages.

In various examples, a VPU and associated components may be optimized to improve VPU performance and throughput. For example, the VPU may include a min/max collector, automatic store predication functionality, a SIMD data path organization that allows for inter-lane sharing, a transposed load/store with stride parameter functionality, a load with permute and zero insertion functionality, hardware, logic, and memory layout functionality to allow for two point and two by two point lookups, and per memory bank load caching capabilities. In addition, decoupled accelerators may be used to offload VPU processing tasks to increase throughput and performance, and a hardware sequencer may be included in a DMA system to reduce programming complexity of the VPU and the DMA system. The DMA and VPU may execute a VPU configuration mode that allows the VPU and DMA to operate without a processing controller for performing dynamic region based data movement operations.

A data management and storage (DMS) cluster of peer DMS nodes manages data of a tenant of a multi-tenant compute infrastructure. The compute infrastructure includes an envoy connecting the DMS cluster to virtual machines of the tenant executing on the compute infrastructure. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with access to the virtual tenant network and the virtual machines of the tenant connected via the virtual tenant network for DMS services such as data fetch jobs to generate snapshots of the virtual machines. The envoy sends the snapshot from the virtual machine to a peer DMS node via the connection for storage within the DMS cluster. The envoy provides the DMS cluster with secure access to authorized tenants of the compute infrastructure while maintaining data isolation of tenants within the compute infrastructure.

An illustrative method includes receiving a write request to write payload data to a virtual storage volume; transmitting the write request to a plurality of storage nodes each storing a replica of the virtual storage volume; acknowledging the write request only after a quorum of the storage nodes has stored the payload in their respective kernel memory; and flushing the payloads stored in each kernel memory to persistent storage only after a threshold number of outstanding write requests that have been acknowledged, but not yet flushed, has been reached, the flushing configured to optimize performance for synchronous workloads.

In some examples, a system detects recovery, from an unavailable state, of a communication link between a first storage system that includes a first storage volume and a second storage system that includes a second storage volume that is to be a synchronized version of the first storage volume, where while the communication link is in the unavailable state the second storage volume is in an offline state and the first storage volume is in an online state. In response to detecting the recovery of the communication link, the system sends a first tracking metadata for the first storage volume from the first storage system to the second storage system, and in response to receipt of the first tracking metadata at the second storage system that maintains a second tracking metadata for the second storage volume, the system transitions the second storage volume from the offline state to a controlled online state, and initiates a synchronization process to synchronize the second storage volume with the first storage volume.

Example implementations described herein involve systems and methods which automatically determine volumes to be replicated for disaster recovery based on the execution priority of an application which uses the volumes. Such example implementations can involve systems and methods involving creating a volume in a first storage system for each of one or more containers newly launched on one or more servers managing a container orchestrator; and establishing replication of the volume for the each of the newly launched one or more containers to a second storage system in order from highest container priority to lowest container priority.

Source database precommitted transactions are resolved in a target database of a database replication system when selected source database precommitted transactions are subsequently aborted in the source database.

An Orchestrated Data Recovery (ODR) Cyber Protection Automation (CPA) operates to ensure one-to-one creation of snapsets of a production site and corresponding snapsets of a cyber vault. During an initiation phase, the ODR CPA monitors synchronization of a snapset of production volumes from the production site to the cyber vault. If additional snapsets of the production volumes are created prior to completion of synchronization of the first snapset, the additional snapsets are also synchronized to the cyber vault. Once the initial synchronization of the storage volumes has been completed, the ODR CPA causes a Storage Volume Creation and Management System (SVCMS) to create a snapset of the storage volumes at the cyber vault. Subsequently, each time a snapset is created of the production site, the ODR CPA orchestrates synchronization of the snapset to the cyber vault and creation of a corresponding snapset at the cyber vault.

In one embodiment, a system for managing a virtualization environment includes a set of host machines, each of which includes a hypervisor, virtual machines, and a virtual machine controller, and a data migration system configured to identify one or more existing storage items stored at one or more existing File Server Virtual Machines (FSVMs) of an existing virtualized file server (VFS). For each of the existing storage items, the data migration system is configured to identify a new FSVMs of a new VFS based on the existing FSVM, send a representation of the storage item from the existing FSVM to the new FSVM, such that representations of storage items are sent between different pairs of FSVMs in parallel, and store a new storage item at the new FSVM, such that the new storage item is based on the representation of the existing storage item received by the new FSVM.

A method for block addressing is provided. The method includes moving content of a data block referenced by a logical block address (LBA) from a first physical block corresponding to a first physical block address (PBA) to a second physical block corresponding to a second PBA, wherein prior to the moving a logical map maps the LBA to a middle block address (MBA) and a middle map maps the MBA to the first PBA and in response to the moving, updating the middle map to map the MBA to the second PBA instead of the first PBA.
