Synchronously Replicating Data Using Virtual Volumes

Abstract:

Synchronous replication between storage systems with virtualized storage includes: assigning a virtual volume datastore to a pod, the pod including a management object, the virtual volume datastore including virtual machine data; stretching the pod from a first storage system to a second storage system, including copying the virtual machine data from the first storage system to the second storage system; and synchronously replicating access operations of the virtual machine data of the pod between the first and second storage systems.
