Abstract
A method is used in managing an asynchronous and synchronous transmit priority mechanism. The method receives a plurality of replication requests in conjunction with a replication process, where the plurality of replication requests comprises at least one of a first replication request or a second replication request. A first storage system that comprises a plurality of storage devices is configured to participate in the replication process with a second storage system that comprises a plurality of storage devices. The method optimizes at least one second replication request to optimize processing of the plurality of replication requests.
Claims20
A method for managing an asynchronous and synchronous transmit priority mechanism, comprising a first storage system configured to participate in a replication process with a second storage system, the method comprising:
- receiving a plurality of replication requests in conjunction with the replication process, wherein the plurality of replication requests comprises at least one of a first replication request or a second replication request, wherein the first storage system comprises a plurality of storage devices and the second storage system comprises a plurality of storage devices;
- and
- optimizing the at least one second replication request to optimize processing of the plurality of replication requests.
A system for use in managing an asynchronous and synchronous transmit priority mechanism comprising a first storage system configured to participate in a replication process with a second storage system, the system comprising a processor configured to:
- receive a plurality of replication requests in conjunction with the replication process, wherein the plurality of replication requests comprises at least one of a first replication request or a second replication request, wherein the first storage system comprises a plurality of storage devices and the second storage system comprises a plurality of storage devices;
- and
- optimize the at least one second replication request to optimize processing of the plurality of replication requests.
A computer program product for managing an asynchronous and synchronous transmit priority mechanism, the computer program product comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium having computer executable program code embodied therewith, the program code executable by a computer processor to:
- receive a plurality of replication requests in conjunction with a replication process, wherein the plurality of replication requests comprises at least one of a first replication request or a second replication request, wherein a first storage system comprising a plurality of storage devices is configured to participate in the replication process with a second storage system comprising a plurality of storage devices;
- and
- optimize the at least one second replication request to optimize processing of the plurality of replication requests.
