Example embodiments of the present invention provide asynchronous splitting of IOs from a storage array, such as a Symmetrix by EMC Corporation of Hopkinton, Mass. to a replication appliance, such as RecoverPoint by EMC Corporation of Hopkinton, Mass. The storage array may receive a plurality of IOs from a host and may store a record (e.g., in an ordered table) associated with the IOs. At a later time, the storage array may provide the IOs according to the record associated with the IOs. For example, the storage array may receive a plurality of Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) Command Descriptor Blocks (CDBs) from one or more hosts and receive data associated with the CDBs. The storage array then may write the data to respective locations in storage and create entries in the ordered table according to the order in which the CDBs were received.
A method comprising:
An apparatus comprising:
A computer program product including a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium encoded with computer-program code that, when executed on a processor of a computer, causes the computer to provide asynchronous splitting, the computer program product comprising:
