Abstract

Provided are a method, system, and computer program product for mapping a source workload pattern for a source storage system to a target workload pattern for a target storage system. A source workload pattern is received from the source storage system having workload access characteristics of source logical addresses at the source storage system. The source workload pattern at the source logical addresses is mapped to a target workload pattern for target logical addresses at the target storage system. The target workload pattern for the target workload addresses is provided to the target storage system to use to determine storage locations in the target storage system to store received replicated data from the source logical addresses at the target logical addresses.
