Abstract

Access to data storage is enhanced. A logical volume defines a set of block based data storage resources and is presented as a first volume. A virtual LUN portal mechanism serves as an alias for the first volume and is presented as a second volume. A block based data manipulation mechanism is configured to apply to a first I/O request directed to the second volume and not to a second I/O request directed to the first volume.
