Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for responding to an extent change operation, the method may include receiving, by a storage system and from a requesting entity, a request to perform an extent content change operation that involves changing a content of a certain extent within a logical space supported by a storage system; generating, in response to the request, extent change operation information that comprises (a) an event counter indicative of a time of requested occurrence of the extent change operation, (ii) a type of extent change operation indicator, and (ii) logical addresses associated with the extent change operation; and sending to the requesting entity an acknowledgement indicative of a completion of the extent change operation before a completion of the extent change operation if an expected content of the certain extent is known before completion of the extent change operation.
