Abstract
Peer storage systems share the workload of asynchronously replicating a shared logical storage unit (LSU) to a target system. Peer storage systems (S1 and S2) that synchronously replicate a shared LSU share the workload of asynchronously replicating the shared LSU to a target system (S3) by dividing ownership of the replication cycles in an alternating manner without a strict synchronization of cycles between the peer storage systems. Rather, a given cycle number (e.g., Cycle 1) on S1 may not start and end with a same write operation as a same cycle number (Cycle 1) on S2, such that cycles on S1 (e.g., Cycle 1 and Cycle 2) overlap with cycles having the same number (Cycle 1 and Cycle 2) on S2. S1 may asynchronously replicate to S3 only the cycles it owns, and S2 may asynchronously replicate to S3 only the cycles it owns to S3.
