Abstract
Described herein are systems and methods for replicating an original sequential data volume to a copied sequential data volume. The two sequential data volumes comprise corresponding data blocks with associated write session identifiers. The write session identifiers may correspond to an applicable write operation. When the original sequential data volume is modified, the copied sequential data volume may also be modified for consistency. The write session identifiers of the two data volumes may be sequentially compared to find a mismatch at a modified data block. The data blocks of the copied sequential data volume are replaced, beginning with the modified data block. Instead of replicating the entire original sequential data volume, the modified data block and any subsequent data blocks are replicated in the copied sequential data volume.
