Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method for switching replication modes in a volume replication system may include (i) in response to deciding to switch from a synchronous replication mode of a volume replication system to an asynchronous replication mode, changing, by a computing device, to the asynchronous replication mode, (ii) associating a new write request to write data to storage, (iii) determining, based on metadata of the existing write request, that the existing write request was issued in the synchronous replication mode, (iv) in response to determining that the existing write request was issued in the synchronous replication mode, processing the existing write request via the synchronous replication, and (v) processing the new write request via the asynchronous replication based on the metadata of the new write request. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
