Abstract
A method for transferring data of a hybrid virtual volume of a computer data storage system from a source to a destination is disclosed. The method first translates intermingled virtual and physical volume block numbers of the hybrid virtual volume into a data stream having only virtual volume block numbers. The method then sends the data stream to a destination computer.
