Abstract

A method is used in managing replication and reservations. An amount of data storage space at a destination data storage location is determined that corresponds to expected successful completion of a data replication operation in which data is written to the destination data storage location. It is determined whether a thin provisioning reservation based on the amount can be made successfully at the destination data storage location. Based on whether the thin provisioning reservation can be made successfully, it is determined whether to proceed with the data replication operation.
