Local storage array
A host delivers a write I/O to the HyperMetro management module.
A log is recorded in the local storage array.
The HyperMetro management module writes the write I/O to both the local and remote
file systems concurrently.
The local file system writes the write I/O to local cache and the remote file system writes
the write I/O to remote cache.
The local cache returns the write I/O result to the local file system and the remote cache
returns the write I/O result to the remote file system.
The local and remote file systems return the write I/O results to the HyperMetro
management module.
The storage system determines whether dual-write is successful.
– If the write I/O request is processed successfully, the log is deleted.
– If the write I/O fails to be written to the local or remote cache, the log is converted
into a DCL. The DCL records the differential data between the local and remote file
systems.
