Abstract

An asynchronous remote copy relationship is maintained between primary storage volumes of a primary storage controller and secondary storage volumes of a secondary storage controller. A command is initiated to generate a point in time copy of a source volume of the primary storage controller to a target volume of the primary storage controller. A mirroring is performed of results of the point in time copy to the secondary storage controller to generate a source volume and a target volume in the secondary storage controller. Data from the target volume in the secondary storage controller is archived to a cloud storage.
