Abstract
A data management system responds to migration requests by automatically invoking a shortcut migration process for suitable candidates. Suitability of candidate data is efficiently evaluated using, among other considerations, the presence or absence of an expedited access indicator for the data which is previously set when the data is recalled from backup storage. In the shortcut migration process, the system automatically reconnects a previously migrated copy of the data object, if available.
