Abstract
Techniques can include: performing asynchronous replication for a source storage object and a target storage object; tracking writes tagged with a tracking identifier associated with a replication related snapshot of the source storage object; receiving a request at a source system to create identical user snapshots of the source storage object and the target storage object; creating a user snapshot of the source storage object; and storing a record in metadata of tracked writes denoting a time order of the request relative to tracked writes tagged with the tracking identifier; determining, in accordance with said tracking, first tracked writes tagged with the tracking identifier that are received before the request; replicating, to the target system, data changes from the replication related snapshot corresponding to the first tracked writes; and creating a user snapshot of the target storage object after data changes are applied to the target storage object.
