ABSTRACT:
A technique for restoring data after suspension of a communications link between two storage systems is disclosed. Upon suspension of the link, an image of the data at the first and second locations is created in a secure location. While the link is down, updates to the data at each of the first and second locations are maintained separately. Upon reestablishment of a communications link, the two locations are again synchronized.
