Techniques for processing messages may include: establishing a plurality of streams between a source system and a target system; reserving one or more streams of the plurality of streams, wherein the one or more streams are reserved and used in transmitting only management messages, wherein the one or more streams includes a first stream of the plurality of streams; transmitting a first management message over the first stream from the source system to the target system; and transmitting a first data message over a second of the plurality of streams, wherein the second stream is not included in the one or more streams reserved for use in transmitting only management messages.

Techniques for processing management messages using multiple streams

A method is disclosed comprising: instantiating a first plurality of type-1 network sockets on a source computing system, each of the type-1 network sockets having a first queue depth; instantiating a second plurality of type-2 network sockets on the source computing system, each of the type-2 network sockets having a second queue depth that is greater than the first queue depth; transitioning the source computing system into a first state, the first state being one in which data replication messages are transmitted by the source computing system to a target computing system by using both the type-1 and type-2 network sockets; transitioning the source computing system from the first state into a second state, the second state being one in which data replication messages are transmitted by the source computing system to the target computing system by using the type-2 network sockets.
