A technique controls data copy operations that copy data within an electronic environment. The technique involves performing, by processing circuitry, an initial series of data copy operations that copy data from a source location to a target location in accordance with an initial series of data copy triggers. The technique further involves receiving, by the processing circuitry, a set of electronic environment measurements from the electronic environment. The technique further involves making, by the processing circuitry, an adjustment to a next data copy trigger based on the set of electronic environment measurements, the adjustment modifying when a next data copy operation takes place after the initial series of data copy operations, the next data copy operation copying data from the source location to the target location.

Adaptively controlling data copy operations that copy data in an electronic environment

A technique provides data high availability to a set of host computers. The technique involves, while a production array provides the set of host computers with access to a production logical unit of storage (LUN), replicating data from the production LUN to a replicated LUN on a replication array. The technique further involves, after replicating at least some of the data from the production LUN to the replicated LUN, electronically detecting a production array deficiency. The technique further involves, in response to electronically detecting the production array deficiency, automatically performing, by electronic circuitry, a failover operation which (i) terminates providing the set of host computers with access to the production LUN and (ii) provides the set of host computers with access to the replicated LUN on the replication array.

Providing data high availability to a set of host computers via automatic failover

A technique for performing non-disruptive migration coordinates object migration with snapshot-shipping to migrate both a data object and its snaps from a source to a target. Snapshot-shipping conveys snaps to the target, and an internal snap of the data object serves as a basis for building a migrated version of the data object at the target. As IO requests specifying writes to the data object arrive at the source, a data mirroring operation writes the arriving data both to the data object at the source and to the version thereof at the target. In parallel with the data mirroring operation, a filtering copy operation copies data of the internal snap to the target, but avoids overwriting data mirrored to the target after the internal snap is taken.
