Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for adjusting synchronization rates of volumes. Volumes and their copies (i.e., mirrored volumes) provide physical or virtual storage on a data storage medium. Depending on the function (i.e., the purpose) of mirrored volumes, a certain synchronization rate is recommended. Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for an automatic dynamic adjustment of individual synchronization rates by adapting to changes in system workloads in order to avoid degradation of user-driven input/output (IO) and to efficiently achieve nearly 100% synchronization for all mirrored volumes.

Claim (Index 17):
The computer system of  claim 13 , wherein program instructions to re-evaluate the new system performance in response to adjusting the synchronization rates of the two or more mirrored volumes, comprise:\n program instructions to collect data associated with the new system performance at the system level, the storage pool level, and the volume level; program instructions to determine a current workload of the system in response to increasing or decreasing the synchronization rates of the one or more mirrored volumes; program instructions to evaluate the new system performance in response to increasing or decreasing the synchronization rates of the one or more mirrored volumes in comparison to collected baseline performance; responsive to determining the system performance has decreased, program instructions to increase the synchronization rates of the one or more mirrored volumes; and responsive to determining the system performance has not decreased, program instructions to search for the available mirror volumes of the set of mirrored volumes.
