Abstract:
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for using geographical location information to provision multiple target storages for a source device. A determination is made of a geographical location of the source device and a distance between the source device and each of the target storages and between each pair of target storages. A determination is further made of qualifying k-tuples of the target storages, wherein each k-tuple comprises a group of k target storages to which the source data is to be backed-up. A qualifying k-tuple has one target storage that satisfies a distance requirement with respect to the source device and a distance between any two target storages in the k-tuple satisfies the distance requirement. A selected qualifying k-tuple is indicated to use to backup the source data at the k target storages in the qualifying k-tuple.

Claim (Index 19):
A computer implemented method for selecting target storages to backup source data from a source device in a network comprising a plurality of m target storages, comprising:\n determining a geographical location of the source device; determining a distance between the source device and each of the target storages and between each pair of target storages; determining qualifying k-tuples of the target storages, wherein each k-tuple comprises a group of k target storages to which the source data is to be backed-up, wherein k is an integer value greater than or equal to two and less than or equal to m, wherein a qualifying k-tuple has one target storage that satisfies a distance requirement with respect to the source device and wherein a distance between any two target storages in the qualifying k-tuple satisfies the distance requirement; selecting a qualifying K-tuple comprising one of the qualifying k-tuples; and indicating the selected qualifying k-tuple to use to backup the source data at the k target storages in the qualifying k-tuple.
