A method, computer program product, and computer system for requesting, by a computing device, information about whether a source and a destination belong to one of a same storage array and storage cluster. Information may be requested about whether the source and the destination support direct data transfer mechanisms between the source and the destination. A copy process may be offloaded from a host computing device to the source and the destination to copy data from the source to the destination when the source and the destination belong to one of a different storage array and storage cluster and when the source and the destination support the direct data transfer mechanisms, and the copy process may be executed on the host device to copy data from the source to the destination when one of the source and the destination does not support the direct data transfer mechanisms.
