Abstract

Accessing stored data includes providing a virtual storage area having a table of pointers that point to sections of at least two other storage areas, where the virtual storage area contains no sections of data, in response to a request for accessing data of the virtual storage area, determining which particular one of the other storage areas contain the data, and accessing the data on the particular one of the other storage areas using the table of pointers. Accessing stored data may also include associating a first one of the other storage areas with the virtual storage area, where the virtual area device represents a copy of data of the first one of the other storage areas. Accessing stored data may also include causing all of the pointers of the table to initially point to sections of the first one of the other storage areas when the virtual storage area is initially associated with the first one of the other storage areas. The storage areas may be storage devices. The sections may be tracks.
