Abstract

Provided are a computer program product, system and method for data storage volume record management for application-level recovery in accordance with the present description. In one embodiment, logical volume movement is addressed when performing enterprise application recovery. In one embodiment, a host-based recovery product in accordance with the present description, can detect logical volume movement from one physical device to another and proactively prevent application level recovery that potentially may result in data loss. In one embodiment, a time-based capturing of pairings of logical and physical volume identifiers or descriptors within storage configuration records and sub-records are used to surgically recover volumes of an application from enterprise level protection copy of physical media. This history of pairings facilitates many types of logical volume to physical media remapping, such as the regular migration of data to replacement storage controllers which can occur at various times.
