Abstract

A delete notification can be received at a storage stack filter in a storage stack. It can be determined whether the delete notification applies to an entire storage volume. If the delete notification does not apply to the entire storage volume, a first set of actions can be taken with the storage stack filter in response to the delete notification. If the delete notification does apply to the entire storage volume, a second set of actions can be taken with the storage stack filter in response to the delete notification.
