Abstract

A method system and program product for atomic operations across multi-volume or multi-LUNs in a data storage environment. It is difficult to manage data storage and replication operations occurring across such multi-LUNs. The method system and program product embodiments overcome these deficiencies and facilitate data storage management and replication operations through library initializations in response to host I/O requests. Accordingly, the invention ensures the integrity of the data being managed without introducing significant cost or overhead.
