Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computer system for submitting, by a computing device, at least one snapshot request of a plurality of snapshots requests into a snapshot queue. How many snapshots of a plurality of snapshots are referencing a given point in time copy may be tracked, wherein the given point in time copy may be mapped to at least a portion of the plurality of snapshots. A desired executing time for the at least one snapshot request in the snapshot queue may be determined. The at least one snapshot request may be dequeued.
