Abstract
Methods, systems, and programs are presented for replicating data across scale-out storage systems. One method includes replicating, from an upstream to a downstream system, a volume snapshot having one or more bins. Locations for the bins of the snapshot are identified, the location for each bin including the upstream array storing the bin and the downstream array storing a replicated version of the bin. Each bin is validated by comparing an upstream bin checksum of the bin with a downstream bin checksum of the replicated version of the bin. When the checksums are different, a plurality of chunks are defined in the bin, and for each chunk in the bin an upstream chunk checksum calculated by the upstream array is compared with a downstream chunk checksum calculated by the downstream array. The chunk is sent from the upstream to the downstream array when the chunk checksums are different.
