A sequence of write transactions are performed at a first storage facility. The write transactions are arranged into a sequence of send batches forwarded to a second storage facility where the write transactions are arranged into a sequence of receive batches. At the first storage facility or at the second storage facility, a first write transaction is replaced with a second write transaction wherein the second write transaction overwrites data written by the first write transaction. A receive batch includes all write transactions between the first write transaction and the second write transaction. The write transactions are applied to a redundant data copy at the second storage facility in which all of the write transactions for the receive batch are applied as a whole to the redundant copy of the data.
