The present disclosure involves a method and device for maintaining a session of a network storage device. As an example, there is provided a method of maintaining a session of a network storage device, comprising: storing a profile of the session in a network storage device, the profile describing attributes of the session; migrating a first virtual server associated with the session and managed by a first storage processor in the network storage device to be managed by a second storage processor, the migration causing the session to be disconnected; recovering the session using attributes based on the stored profile; and updating signature of the session. Thus, when migration occurs in a virtual server, the associated session can be maintained.

Method and device for maintaining session of network storage device

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and device for a storage system. The method may include: replicating, through a first replication process, data in a first storage device to a second storage device to obtain a data replica; replicating, through a second replication process, metadata of the data to the second storage device to obtain a first metadata replica; replicating, in the second storage device through a third replication process, the first metadata replica to obtain a second metadata replica; and performing data recovery based on the data replica and the second metadata replica.

Method and device for storage system

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method, a computer program products and apparatus for controlling sharing of a resource among a plurality of nodes, wherein in response to a service using the resource to be initiated at an object node of the plurality of nodes, locking, at the object node, an object file that is associated with use of the resource; in response to successful locking of the object file, determining, at the object node, whether other files associated with the use of the resource at other nodes of the plurality of nodes have been locked; and in response to determining that the other files are not locked, using, at the object node, the resource to initiate the service.

Controlling sharing of resource among a plurality of nodes

The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for a storage system. The storage system includes an active storage site and a standby storage site, and a logical unit number LUN for a storage pool of the active storage site is replicated to a LUN for a storage pool of the standby storage site to form a consistency group. The method comprises: creating a first LUN and a second LUN as mirrors of each other at the active storage site and the standby storage site, respectively; adding the mirrors formed by the first LUN and the second LUN to the consistency group; after the second LUN is added to the storage pool of the standby storage site, adding the first LUN to the storage pool of the active storage site.

Method and apparatus for storage system

There is provided a method and device for recovering data replication between storage devices. The method comprises: creating mirrored pairs between logical units of a primary storage device and logical units of a secondary storage device; in response to the primary storage device recovering from an interruption state to a normal state, re-creating the mirrored pairs based on one or more replication sessions between the logical units of the primary storage device and the logical units of the secondary storage device stored before interruption; and replicating data to the primary storage device based on the re-created mirrored pairs.
