Abstract

A method includes receiving a request for modification of computer readable program code associated with a scenario being executed at a production server. The production server is configured to provide a computing service. Writing to a storage medium associated with the production server with respect to data specified by the protection scenario is suspended during the modification responsive to the request, such that synchronization of the data specified by the scenario is maintained between the production server and a standby server during the modification. Related systems and computer program products are also discussed.
